Question Fraudulent Schemes Punishments
My question involves criminal law for the state of: WV

A criminal complaint has been filed from a former employer alleging that I misused approx. $3500 in expense monies. I have been informed that I will be charged with one count of felony fraudulent schemes. I have no criminal record (never charged with anything and haven't even had a speeding ticket in five years) and currently not living in the state in which the alleged offense occured. What are the chances of a pretrail diversion being granted if I offer to make restitution in full.

Default Re: Fraudulent Schemes Punishments
That's something to discuss with your criminal defense lawyer. I am skeptical that you will qualify for a diversion program, even assuming one exists in the county where you are or will be charged, but there may be other ways to avoid a conviction.
