Technikfreak Posted February 22, 2010 Report Posted February 22, 2010 I'm sorry to hear about your friend. Hope he has learned his lesson. Coming to the point,1. Shoplifting is defined as a larceny in Virginia. The value of the merchandise will determine if his shoplifting charge is going to be charged as a petit (petty) larceny or grand larceny in Virginia.2. If the value of the good stolen is valued at $200 or more, then the person accused of shoplifting is facing a [color=red][b]grand larceny charge[/b][/color] in Virginia.3. If the value of the good stolen is valued less than $200, then the person accused of shoplifting is facing a [b][color=red]petit (petty) larceny charge[/color][/b] in Virginia.4. Shoplifting cases in Virginia are frequently actually charged under the Virginia concealment statute. The concealment statute makes it a larceny to conceal merchandise or alter the price tag of merchandise, in order to take the merchandise.If he is charged with shoplifting, the penalties are very serious and the punishments imposed by the court can be very harsh.The precise penalty you will face in court depends upon the type of Virginia shoplifting charge you are charged with, the facts of your case, and your prior record.[b][color=red]Petty larceny[/color][/b]• Misdemeanor• Up to 1 year in jail• Up to a $2,500 fine[b][color=red]Grand larceny[/color][/b]• Felony• Up to 20 years in jailEven though if his shoplifting charge has been dismissed, what he's not told is that it can still come back to haunt him.Why?Because, even if the shoplifting charge is dismissed, your criminal record reflects that he received a first time offender treatment because you have to enter a plea of guilty to get this treatment.THIS CAN STILL RESULT IN LOSS OF YOUR SECURITY CLEARANCE AND IT ALSO MAY HAVE IMMIGRATION CONSEQUENCES DEPENDING ON YOUR IMMIGRATION STATUS.some jurisdictions like Prince William County do not have first time offender treatment option for shoplifting. The Prince William County judges impose a 2 day jail sentence for even the first offense of shoplifting in Prince William County, Virginia.

Technikfreak Posted February 22, 2010 Report Posted February 22, 2010 Virginia has programs in place where the accused can often plead guilty in exchange for restitution (paying back the victim) and community service.
BackbenchBoyy Posted February 22, 2010 Report Posted February 22, 2010 @adolf.... sorry dude.... I WAS WRONG .... @technik.... good work man....but the 1 yr sentence is an extreme case.... i dont think the case right now is that complicated..coz the guy is pleading guilty and its just freakin 60 $..i think
