Croatian term (edited):
kazneno djelo, prekr�aj, prestup
Selected
felony, misdemeanor, infringement
kazneno djelo, prekraj - felony, misdemeanour
"According to UK legilation: A felony, as in many common law systems is the term for a "very serious" crime (aggravated assault, arson, burglary, murder, rape...). Misdemeanors are considered to be less serious crimes such as vandalism, prostitution, petty theft, simple assaut, tresspass etc."
prijestup - infrimgement
Pretpostavljam da ovaj pojam odnosi na krenje bilo kakvog propisa, dakle na najopćenitiji pojam nepotivanja zakona ili propisa neke drave.

Comment: "Iako se ne slazem sa citavim odgovorom, objasnjenje pojma prijestupa pomoglo mi je da dodem do vlastitog zakljucka. Hvala i ostalima na prijedlozima."

summary offence & indictable offence ref my comment in my answer for magistrates court.
Prestup is a general word that points to any wrongdoing, no matter how big or small There is a variety of expressions for prestup and I posted those ones I was advised to use while working for International Police Task Force.
Good luck

Something that I translated so many, many times...
Good luck
