Normally on a first time grand theft charge probation would be the result. Every case is different however. You can call a defense attorney in the county she was charged in and the attorney can find out the alleged victim and more information. She may also be eligible for a diversion program which could result in a dismissal. I would call an experienced criminal defense attonrey in the county where this was charged.

Normally a first time grand theft will end up in probation assuming that there are no defenses available to her. She may qualify for a idversion program which can end up in a dismissal. A local defense attorney to where the charge was filed can find out who the alleged victim is and more information even before you hire an attorney. I would call an experienced criminal defense attorney in the county this is in.
