    Default Shoplifting with Long Prior Criminal Record

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: NY. Friend got caught shoplifting 6 bottles shampoo. Attempted to flee police in van that was borrowed and also driving with revoked license. They let him go but he has a long criminal record in over 3 states, including NY, 12 prior felonies. They just kept letting him out. Did time in Upstate NY prison 18 mos to 3 yrs for breaking and entering (Class D felony so they said) between 2005 and 2006. Let him out early. Now is in drug rehab for a month, from where they sent him to a nursing home because he is ill. Court wants him to come back to NY (nursing home in NJ) and he has no transport. Realize they will put out warrant for him. ? is what kind of sentence can he expect given his priors.

    It depends upon the exact charge, which we don't know, as well as the terms of any plea bargain. He should consult a criminal defense lawyer.
