I am not a lawyer, but got involved helping a friend in a Class 3 Petty Theft case in oregon and will tell you they are not reasonable there. Things will depend on the district court you're charged in. Some have Early Case Resolution - the DA just wants you to plead guilty and take the probation they'll give you , sentence you on the spot. Don't do that. Plead not guilty which buys you some time. Unfortunately for you Oregon DA's don't care about doing what's the right thing for you, or their tax payers. Imagine a jury hearing that you didn't realize what you did, (means you didn't have intent to take the wood, you didn't have intent to deprive someone of their property), you 'took' it by mistake. But they'll prosecute you anyway, and expect you to plead guilty to petty theft,
it'll stay on your record forever. Oregon is getting famous for ruining the lives of ordinary citizens as a way to make money for their system. They can't create too many new crimes so they tell yo 'take the early plea" and "it'll be easier for you," which is true, for the moment, but it won't be eaiser for you later. It'll be easier and simple for the DA now, and they don't care about you at all.
Get a lawyer! I talked to this guy, Bruce Shepley and he was really nice and helpful. the court may appoint you one too, but you need a lawyer. Do not go through the oregon system without one. the DA's goal is to convict you and get the case cleared off their calendar. They do not help defendants. They don't do what's right for the taxpayers. They spend our taxpayer money to go after people like you , instead of people with the intent to become criminals.
Looks like your case is in Yamhill County Court and I think do have that early case thing - don't take it or it'll be on your record forever. the DA doesn't care it'll be on your record and they don't care about your job, they have secure jobs. get a lawyer.
