    Theft under 5000
    I was recently charged with theft under 5000. I was wondering being a first time offender with no previous criminal record if there was some way to pay plead guilty and get out of the trail? I know that often first time offenders often get no criminal record but sometimes have to pay a fine. Is there someway to pay and get out of the trial date without obtaining a criminal record?
    I also have another question. What can I expect from the police leading up to the trial? I know that I have to get fingerprinted and mugshots done- but I heard that they come to your house and also phone your house. Is this true? When can I be expecting this reletively to the trial
    THanks so much

    Hello jane:

    There's no answer to your questions. Every case is different. The one thing that is constant in every case is that you should have a lawyer and you shouldn't talk to the cops.

    I have another question- I live in windsor which borders to detroit and I always go over to the states... will I be able to go to the states because I have this pending on my record... I haven't been found guilty yet because I haven't had my court day- before court will I be able to get over? If I have a criminal record after court will I be able to get over?
