how long can someone be in jail for theft and envading arrest?
Answer
Assuming that you are asking the maximum sentence that can be assessed on these offenses for a first offender (no prior convictions), evading arrest on foot is a class B misdemeanor for which one can get up to 6 months in jail. Evading arrest in a motor vehicle is a state jail felony for which one can receive up to 2 years in state jail.
The question about theft cannot be answered without more information. Theft offenses can range all the way from a class c (like a traffic ticket) to a first degree so from a fine only to life in prison. Need to know the amount of the theft in question.
