I recently got caught at winco stealing about 10 dollars worth of stuff. Being my first offense, could I have it made into an infraction? I'm just curious what comes next. I'm in placer county if it matters.
I was recently arrested for petty theft in placer county. I stole a few items from a local winco with the total value of under 10 dollars. I was curious if I could appeal for an infraction, and what my biggest penalty could be. I have no previous convictions.
Thank you for your help!
