It's a petty theft if the meal was under $400 and grand theft if the figure is over that amount. It can be easily over that amount if 4 or 5 people sat down for a nice dinner and wine, then purposely left without paying.

I believe this individual will most likely be in juvenile custody until the age of 18 for the possession charge,.due to the fact she has priors of assault. But if she or her family can show and prove that she is an addict, that she would like rehabilitation, and that she sincerely desires help for her anger and drug problems, than I believe the judge reviewing the probation officer's pre-sentencing report ,and family's intervention and concern, can and would consider options, as it is the view of the legal system, that a juvenile be given the opportunity to rehabilitated and become a productive citizen rather than another statistic,of the endless recidivism rate for juveniles not afforded, a chance to change their lives. Therefore i would advise you to accept being committed to a live-in Drug Treatment Program(24) months and probationary conditions upon completion, with stipulations that a violation of the terms would send you to Juvenile detention until the age of 21.

There is a specific statute on this (among other things), and it is known as "defrauding an innkeeper." (Penal Code section 537.) The punishments are the same as for other thefts, however. $400 or less, a misdemeanor with a six month maximum jail term. Over $400 (don't pull this at Spago), a misdemeanor with a one year maximum jail term or a felony with a three year maximum prison term.

My buddy from Bakersfield called it "the smokin' tennis shoe"
....referring to the skid marks on the tile floor as he ran out of the restaurant.
