My question involves criminal law for the state of: Georgia

My eighteen year old friend had sex with a fifteen year old girl. The law in Georgia states that if they are no more than three years apart, it is a misdemeanor.

They are thirty-eight months apart in age. Which would make them three years and two months apart in age from each other.

My question is:

If the parents press charges against my friend, will it be considered a felony or misdemeanor?
