What do you think would happen to me after a 4th degree grand larceny felony? 4 Answers as of January 05, 2012

You may get Youthful Offender treatment which will save you from a criminal record.

If you are 1 you are eligible for Youthful Offender Treatment and you will not have a criminal conviction but you will have a YO conviction that could be a problem if you want to enter the military or work for the government. Unless you stole more than $25,000 and cannot pay restitution you are not facing a jail term, but you will be on probation for 5 years. If you violate probation you could be sentenced to a jail term. You should retain a good criminal lawyer to handle the case. Life is about making good decisions. You decided to risk your entire future and your reputation for a few dollars. You disgraced your family and became a thief without considering the consequences of your decision. You were just thinking about getting some money without regards for anyone else. That was foolish, selfish, and and no doubt caused your parents a lot of pain and embarrassment. I hope you learn from this mistake and study hard, get a good career, and start making good decisions. You are entitled to a break because you are young, appreciate that and make some changes in your life. That will make this a lesson learned and get you to see why you need to follow the law and make a good living so that you can make an honest living. Good Luck.

You would be entitled to youthful offender treatment which means that it will not be a conviction of a crime- get a lawyer!

If you want to avoid the risk of going to trial, reasonable goals for you would be: 1) avoiding jail; and 2) receiving a "youthful offender adjudication". Based on the limited information you've provided, you have a good chance of achieving both goals. A youthful offender adjudication would replace a criminal conviction. Youthful offender adjudications are available to eligible defendants under the age of 19 who are convicted of certain crimes. With no priors, you would be eligible to receive a youthful offender adjudication if you are convicted of grand larceny in the fourth degree or any lesser offense.
