    If you plan on pleading guilty, you can get up to the maximum penalty allowed by law.

    Ps: pleading guilty is not a good idea. Any questions? Check out retail theft answers .org OR the sticky I wrote at the top of this forum.

    You can consult with an attorney to see if they can stand for you, but when you break the laws, generally you do have to appear in court to answer whether it's convenient to you or not.

    Veggie, the Ski season doesn't get really going until after Xmas.

    Diversion or a reduction maybe possable since it's your 1st offense.
