§ 91.37. Definition of ‘‘crime.’’
As Enforcement Rule 214(h) provides and as used in this Subchapter B, the term ‘‘crime’’ means an offense that is punishable by imprisonment in the jurisdiction of conviction, whether or not a sentence of imprisonment is actually imposed; and, notwithstanding any other provision of subdivision (h) of Enforcement Rule 214 or this rule, the term ‘‘crime’’ shall include criminal contempt, whether direct or indirect, and without regard to the sentence that may be imposed or that is actually imposed. It does not include parking violations or summary offenses, both traffic and non-traffic, unless a term of imprisonment is actually imposed.
