If my company is turning a theft over to the police when should I get a lawyer?

Richard Keith Oliver
Answered by attorney Richard Keith Oliver (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at The Law Office of Rick Oliver
Contact a bond company. Ask them what the bond would typically be for a State Jail Felony Theft. Ask them what the typical fee would be for the typical bond. Make sure you have at least that much money set aside. Ask the bond agent if they will do a "no-arrest walk-through." If not, keep calling around (if the jail doesn't allow walk-throughs you are going to be SOL on this point; but sometimes a particular bond company just doesn't want to deal with them; you may also call the jail and ask whether it is common for people to do walk-throughs). Ask the bond company to check to see if there is a warrant out for your arrest. If not, call them back every day and ask them to check for warrants. After a month or so, maybe call them every other day or once a week.  You should think about getting an attorney as soon as your name is connected to suspected criminal activity. But, if you cannot afford to hire one yet, at least be prepared to hire someone immediately after you bond out.

Can i sue for False arrest

Richard Keith Oliver
Answered by attorney Richard Keith Oliver (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at The Law Office of Rick Oliver
No. The government enjoys something called "qualified immunity." A bad investigation is something you can attack in their case against you. It won't be enough for you to go after them for a bad arrest or a civil rights violation.

Is possession of stolen property a felony or a misdemeanor?

Jared Clayton Austin
Answered by attorney Jared Clayton Austin (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Austin Legal Services, PLC
If you receive or conceal stolen property or aid someone in receiving or concealing stolen property, it could be either a felony or a misdemeanor. It depends on the value of the property. If the value is less than $200, it's a 93-day misdemeanor. If the value is $200 to $1,000, it's a one-year misdemeanor. Beyond that value, you started getting into felony classification which again, depends on the value of the property. In order to be convicted you have to know or have reason to know (i.e. you should have known) that the property was stolen.
