what felony charge is theft of 1500-20000? It is my first charge.
Answer
I believe range of punishment for a theft of this sort is up to two years in a state jail, plus a fine which runs concurrent with prison time
Answer
Mr. Engelke is correct. In addition, as a first offender, you are eligible for probation or deferred adjudication probation. (This does not eman that you will get it but you are eligible.)
Answer
Theft over $1,500 and under $20,000 is a state jail felony. The range of punishment for a state jail felony is 6 months to 2 years in a state jail facility and/or a fine not to exceed $10,000 plus court costs. The time on a state jail felony is day for day time and there is no good time credit.
The time on this offense can be probated for an eligible defendant.
An attorney should be consulted and hired in order to investigate and analyze the evidence in the case and determine whether it is appropriate to negotiate a plea bargain or set the case for trial.
