Re: shoplifting

What is your question???

"Shoplifting 1st offense" would be called "Retail Fraud" in Michigan. But the degree (level) it is charged at -- and whether the charge is a misdemeanor or a felony -- depends on how much you stole and/or prior larceny convictions.

Without more case information (which your question is sorely lacking), we really cannot give a more thorough answer.
