Asked on Jan 07th, 2012 on Criminal Law - New York
More details to this question:
I am being charged with grand larceny 4th degree. This is my first offense and I am a minor, 17 years old. Will I go to jail? If in case I pay for the cost of the item, will that help me in any way? I only have a public offender and I really can't afford a lawyer.

You have to put your faith in your defender. A sentence depends on a lot of things like the exact charge(s), how cooperative the complainant(s) are, any injuries or property damage, the criminal history (including all arrests even if no convictions), behavior towards the arresting officer(s) and other factors.
