    Cashier Caught Making Fraudulent Returns
    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Louisiana
    Ok I'm goin to court for theft by fraud I was a cashier at a retail store and would run returns on the register even though it wasn't a legit return. I would then sell the cards for a little less then what was on it for cash. This is my first felony and I did almost 13 thousand in damage but I got almost most of the cards returned with the money on them what am I looking at?

    That is dependent on whether you are charged with one or several charges. What are the current charges? Your criminal history? Have you hired an attorney? If you have not you better.

    For 13,000? Prison.

    That's the best I can do unless you give us the statute you were charged under.

    You say first felony - how many OTHER crimes are on your record?

    I have no other crimes on record is there a chance I will get probation with papers?

    $13,000 of theft? And you think probation is all you will get?

    No.

    Reality: PRISON. Restitution. Court costs and fines. You may get probation AFTER getting out of the Gray Bar Motel.

    Time to hire a Criminal Defense Attorney, you are going to need one.

    Returning the money will help your case, but won't erase it.

    You don't get to claim you didn't rob the bank because you returned the money you stole.

    We can't tell you how much prison time. We don't know how tough on crime the prosecutor/D.A. is in your area.

    Seriously - you need to hire a lawyer asap.
