Q: Am I looking to o some time if I have 3 class h felonies pending in North Carolina
Felony larceny of motor vehicle felony possess of stolen vehicle and felony obtaining property under false pretense
A:
For Class H felonies in NC you could get some active time if convicted of one, even without any prior criminal record. If the circumstances were not terribly bad, and looking at your record does not make the DA think you need to do some time, then this level felony allows for probation even for those with quite high prior record levels, so maybe that will be a possibility. An experienced criminal attorney will be able evaluate the evidence, talk to the ADA and let you know where you stand.
