Is there a way that I can just pay and not appear in court for a $20 petty theft charge?

Shannon Willis Locke
Answered by attorney Shannon Willis Locke
Criminal Law lawyer at The Locke Law Group
Do not do this. Paying off any ticket or citation makes it a conviction on your record. A theft case is a crime of moral turpitude. If you get a theft conviction it will ruin your reputation for the rest of your life. This means that it will follow you around for the rest of your life. If you get into a car accident and are owed millions of dollars a theft conviction can be used to question your credibility. Whatever you do, do not just pay a theft citation. If you do not want to hire a lawyer try to negotiate for deferred adjudication. Then, complete the terms of deferred adjudication and hire a lawyer (two years after your offense date) to get an expunction. This will keep your record clean.

What are the chances of a prosecutor not pursuing the case?

Answered by attorney Ryan Lee Berman (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Ryan Berman Esq.
Depending on your jurisdiction, depends on your chances of the prosecutor fully pursuing the charges or not. They most likely will, however there are trial diversion or 1st time DV programs that can get this off of your record, if you successfully complete probation. However there may be some collateral consequences depending on the program. I suggest you consult with an attorney to go over the specifics.

Can we get a record expungement?

Thomas J Tomko
Answered by attorney Thomas J Tomko (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Thomas J. Tomko, Attorney at Law
Thank you for your inquiry. Expungement is available after 5 years and provided that there are no other prior convictions for any misdemeanor or felony. You describe multiple prior offenses when considering both misdemeanors and felonies. Therefore, expunement in Michigan is not possible.
