Q: A 15 yr old juvenile steals a car in the state of Georgia, in Gwinnett county.

What happens to the juvenile if they have no criminal record before the incident regarding the car. They have no history with law enforcement making this their first offense. Also what’s best/worst case for the juvenile when they’re given their consequence by the judge in juvenile court.

The best course of conduct is to obtain an experienced attorney.

The charges you face are very significant and could result in considerable prison time (years).

The best thing you can do is retain an attorney who has experience fighting those kind of charges, particularly in that jurisdiction.
