If you have written any papers in the class before, chances are that the professor has learned your written voice. This is how you organize your thoughts, compose sentences, and even make grammatical errors. If suddenly your written voice changes, or your writing dramatically improves, this can lead to a suspicious professor. Even without evidence of plagiarism, they can bring academic charges against you.

Online plagiarism checking tools are not a student’s best resource. Universities use more sophisticated software that these free tools do not use. Even if a free online plagiarism checker did not identify anything, it does not mean it is original.
Criminal offenses are grouped into two categories: misdemeanors and felonies. A misdemeanor is considered a lesser offense, such as DUI or shoplifting, while a felony is a more serious crime like homicide or sexual assault.
Although misdemeanors are not seen as serious as felony offenses, it is important that you seek strong legal representation. Having a proven criminal defense attorney on your side can help get you the most favorable results possible.
