    Unhappy 2nd Offense 3rd Degree Fraud

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: In michigan I recieved a ticket for 3rd degree retail fraud, it was my second offense though on my ticket it reads only retail fraud III. A friend police officer tells me the way the ticket was written the judge must treated as a 1st offense because the way it was written. The cop did indeed know me and said he's giving me a break. since then I've been to councling and have a new doctor that I've known for a long time. doctor said the meds I was on played a big roll how I would not have scanned everything though I missed 2 items valued at $59.00. I now am on the correct medication and the doctor is willing to back me up with his phone #. I also have proof of seeing a councelar. At court do I present this to the prosecuter and plead guilty or get a lawer? I'am i looking at jail time? according to my officer freind he said no though I'm still scared and confused PLEASE HELP!

    get a lawer?
    That should answer your question. If you cannot afford an attorney, plead not guilty at the pre-trial and request a court appointed attorney. If you qualify, one will be provided to you.
