Delitos y Faltas

"Delitos" (crimes) and "faltas" (misdemeanors or infractions) are legal terms used to categorize offenses. Delitos are more serious, usually carrying heavier penalties like imprisonment or significant fines, and are considered violations of criminal law. Faltas are less severe, often resulting in lighter punishments such as warnings or small fines. Both are offenses against the law, but they differ in severity, legal consequences, and how they are prosecuted. This distinction helps legal systems allocate resources and determine appropriate penalties based on the seriousness of the offense.
