    Well last time it was your first offense and you got a diversion program, this time since it is not your first offense and obviously did not learn you will get a record for this theft unless you go to trial and are found not guilty or your attorney can work some plea out with them.

    You won't just walk this time - the Court already tried that and you didn't learn. I would expect a fine, restitution, possibly community service - and a criminal record.

    Did you bother reading what he wrote? He said: "last time my charges were no criminal record did community hours".

    If you are also in this situation there are loads of threads from people with the same problem.

    Please - this is a legal board. Speak in full sentences. No text talk. It is hard to take your situation seriously when you cannot express yourself.

    Also read what OP posted -

    You have posted your same question several times - should be combined.
