Legal Question in Criminal Law in Michigan

Street Sign Theft

I was caught with several street signs in the back of my truck. I'm 18, there were probably 16 signs, and I have no prior record of any kind. What kind of consequences am I facing here?

I'd guess a year's probation; re-installation of all the street signs; 80 hours community service or 10 WAM days working for the street dept.

$750 fines and costs - depending on oversight fees.

If you're granted HYTA, it'll stay off your record upon sentence completion.

Ask your dad if he'll pay for a lawyer. The important part is to keep it off your record.
