Re: retail petit theft

Assuming you were charged with a first degree misdemeanor petit theft (petit theft with a prior petit theft conviction), that crime is punishable by up to one year in the county jail or one year probation. Plus, you could get some addition time for the offense that you were on probation for when you picked up the petit theft, but that is unlikely unless you have a really tough Judge or prosecutor.
