My question involves criminal law for the state of: new york i have a Desk Appearance Ticket date in mid sept for theft of 230usd of goods (fake return...i paid 230usd for the original purchase of the items and left the bag on the train. i stupidly thought i could recouperate the loss via a fake return at another store) , this is my first arrest, i have never had a criminal record. at the DAT date in Sept, will the judge give a final decision? or will i need to reappear for another court date? i am beign charged with pety larceny 155.25
