Re: I was charged with theft c/a

If the amount stolen is under $1500 you will be charged with a misdemeanor. After you are charged you should be given court date. In court if you don't have an attorney, you will be given the option of more time to hire an attorney, applying for a court appointed attorney or representing yourself. You attorney will speak with the DA and obtain a plea bargain offer.

If you do not wish to try the case, you can negotiate a plea bargain with the DA.
