In the state of Kansas, there is no such thing as a “Level 5 felony” or a “Level 8 felony.” The state uses a different system of classification for felonies, which is based on severity levels. Felonies in Kansas are classified as severity levels 1 through 10, with severity level 1 being the most serious. The severity level of a felony is determined by a number of factors, including the nature of the offense, the circumstances surrounding it, and the defendant’s criminal history. The penalties for a felony conviction in Kansas can include prison time, fines, and other consequences.
