    Default Caught shoplifting - Michigan

    I was caught shoplifting in a department store. I took 3 items totaling to $686. I had court today. I pleaded guilty to the charges and I have to go to court again in a month and half. I pleaded guilty so I can pay whatever I had to today and get this over with. Why do I need to go to trial again in front of jurors? I already plead guilty.....
    I have to talk to a probation officer on this monday...Im so confused!

    Default Sentencing

    Your next court date is probably a sentencing date. Check the notice from the court.

    It is for sentencing but I thought they would have sentenced that day because I am pleading guilty. I have to see a probation officer this Monday. What do you think the outcome with be?

    Default Shoplifting Sentence

    For a first offense? Probably a fine, court costs, probation, and possibly some form of community service.

    Yes it was a first offense. I've never stolen in my life but temptation took over me! And I deeply regret it.
    I stole $686 do you think my fine will be 3x? I was researching on the net and it says up to $2000!
