Petty Theft or Shoplifting

Petty theft more commonly known is the stealing of merchandise valued at less than $400 from a retail store, library, utility or person.

• First-time offenders are looking at a misdemeanor with a maximum of 1 year in jail, restitution and approximately $200 in fines. As a general rule, first-time offenders can avoid jail completely.

• Subsequent offenses can be charged as a felony and come with some serious penalties. (Petty Theft with a prior constitutes a felony and is charged under Penal Code Section 666)

Well, I don't know what they give you for misdemeanors in California. But, in Chicago where I'm from you just have to serve a couple of day in the county jail. You only go to prison if you catch a felony case... You may have to spend a couple days in jail, do community service, or most likely just pay a fine and restitution.

Ca

Under $400 usually misdemeanor, over felony. Exceptions are theft of a firearm or theft of something off the person of another. (felony)

felony theft is based on amount. You are looking at 2 misdemeanors. states very by amounts, as a general rule it's about 2k for a felony. other wise all you petty *** punks would be in jail.

Misdemeanor... You'll be ordered to pay restitution (value of what you took), and have a fine to pay.
