What is white-collar crime in federal court?

White collar crime is really just a generic term which applies, many times, to businesses. It could be that a business, or people that own a business or run a business, are charged with doing something illegal. Typically, those things would be what we would consider “non-violent” type of things. The other thing that’s interesting about white collar crime is that sometimes there’s such a grey area, that it’s not clear that a crime has been committed.

Examples of white collar crime would basically be some type of fraud or theft or sometimes an immigration issue where a company had employees and the government says that those employees are not qualified to work.

But that’s generally what the term “white collar crime” means: it means that someone has committed some kind of non-violent crime, usually pertaining to some type of a business practice.
