Re: Shoplifting in Oregon
Quote:
(1) Can I be charge as theft III when I think I should be charge as shoplift II by Eugene City Code? (When the Oregon code only has theft no shoplift)
They have the right to ammend the charge
Quote:
(2) Should I plea guilty of theft III under such circumstance on my first appear in court?
When you appear before the judge he will ask you how you plead
Plead Guilty and be sentanced then and there
Plead Not Guilty and ask for a Public Defender. You court date will be continued
Quote:
(3) How do I ask judge's permission for diversion program or the permission for treat class C misdemeanors as class A violation?
Your Public Defender will be the one to explore whatever options are available
Quote:
(4) How do I show the judge that I am remorse of shoplifting instead of remorse about being caught?
You don't
Be well dressed, clean, attentive to whatever the Judge says
