It'll cost you less if you appeared at the same courthouse for those charges. It'll cost you more if you didn't.

If I took a plea for probation, is it still possible to opt out of probation and do jail time?

> Why 93? If you undid the probation deal, the court wouldn't be stuck with 93. Usually, a no probation offer is more jail time.  If you mean do 93 days jail instead of some probation term like community labor, then you can certainly opt to do the jail.  You'd still be on probation afterwards.

Is there anything I can do to keep my school and employer from finding out about my theft?

Answered by attorney Stephen Lewis Freeborn (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Freeborn Law Offices P.S.
I suggest that you contact and retain an attorney. The most important thing is to try and prevent a conviction. If you get convicted, then if asked on an employment application if you have ever been convicted, you will have to say "yes". Also, if you are still in school and getting any scholarship, grants, student loans or government grants or loans, you could be disqualified from all of these. Being charged (and possibly convicted) of theft does not bode well with future employers, especially in your field, as an employed could be concerned about future theft of monies from work, or worse, theft of medications. With the economy being what it is and so few jobs out there, a theft could be enough to disqualify you from future jobs. Hire an attorney who may be able to help you get some amicable resolution short of a conviction.
