Legal Question in Criminal Law in New York

Re: grand larceny in the 4th charge

This all depends on various factors, is this her first offense? does she have any priors at all? what was the value of the item(s) that were stolen? Usually general rule is that the level of bail corresponds to the level of the seriousness of the crime, on such high bail i would presume it was a charge being taken very seriously.

On such a charge you may be looking at some serious time... if this is not a first offense you could be looking at up to or over 4 years of time.

If bail is so high, i would absolutely consider contacting and hiring a good criminal attorney... If this is a first offense, it may be very possible to get a favorable end to this case.

It all depends on individual circumstances of the case and the person charged with offense.
