    Default What's The Worst Than Can Happen

    Ive just been given a case number for my retail fraud case. The theft was over 1000 dollars worth of merchandise. i did fully cooperate with the store LPs yet without even telling me they handed over evidence to the district attorney in California. i've tried to find out whats the worst thing that can happen to me but the courts say there is nothing to tell me until i sit in front of a judge. Any help out there would be appreciated.

    Without seeing the code of violation we cant say. I would suggest that because of dollar value your looking at felony charges. Consult with a criminal defense Attorney right away

    Only an attorney can possibly tell you what the penalty might be and what the chances of your pleading to a lesser offense might be. This could be charged as Grand Theft, Burglary, Embezzlement, or any and all of the above plus more.

    Consult local counsel.
