Re: forgery and fraud felony

The fact that you made complete restitution is not entirely relevant. However, you may be eligible for a diverson program or the Holmes Youthful Training Act (HYTA) if you are under the age of 21.

Your guidelines may allow you to get straight probation, work program or a tether.

More details needed for a better answer, but there are alternatives to incarceration for first offenders that need to be explored.
