Prop. 47 initiative reduces the penalties for certain theft crimes - TopicsExpress



          

Prop. 47 initiative reduces the penalties for certain theft crimes and drug crimes in California. The signed law, which can be found under PC 1170.18, makes certain crimes that were previously felonies or wobblers in California law, and changes them to misdemeanors for all purposes, except gun for gun rights. This means that the maximum penalty for these crimes will generally be: up to one year in county jail; and/or a fine of up to one thousand dollars ($1,000). This change can also positively impact your abilities to get a job, student loan, license, etc.
