Criminal Law - Petty Theft
Sacramento Petty Theft Attorney, Sacramento Petty Theft Defense Lawyer
In most cases, first offenses such as shoplifting are punishable by a small fine and 1 to 3 years of informal probation. In some cases, a first offense can be reduced to an infraction, thus eliminating any criminal record.
A second or third theft/shoplifting offense is a much more serious matter because of the consequences. It can be charged as Felony Petty Theft (also called petty theft with a prior) and is punishable by a year in county jail or even 16 months in state prison.
