This question depends on where you are going to court. Minimums are set by state or local law.Added: The MINIMUM jail time for a felony offense is more than one year plus one day in jail. However: The terminology "felony petty theft" in an oxymoron. If it is Petty (Petit) Theft, by definition, it would be a misdemeanor offense, NOT a felony, and punishable by jail not to exceed one year.
No. A tort is a CIVIL wrong - not a criminal offense. PETIT LARCENY (Petty Larceny) is the statutory legal description of a criminal offense, and that would be the formal charge in a criminal law case. However in a civil case for monetary damages it might be addressed, or described somewhat differently (e.g.: wrongful conversion - taking property without right - etc)
No. But you could be offered probation. No one is guaranteed one free bite at the apple.

Lewis v. United States, 518 US 322 (1996)In Lewis, the Supreme Court held defendants accused of petty crimes, even multiple petty crimes, do not have a right to trial by jury. Often, the determining factor is whether the sentence involves imprisonment of six months or less, or combined sentences of more than six months imprisonment. There are some exceptions to this rule, however.In the opinion of the Court, Justice O'Connor wrote:"The Sixth Amendment reserves the jury trial right to defendants accused of serious crimes. As set forth above, we determine whether an offense is serious by looking to the judgment of the legislature, primarily as expressed in the maximum authorized term of imprisonment. Here, by setting the maximum authorized prison term at six months, the Legislature categorized the offense of obstructing the mail as petty. The fact that petitioner was charged with two counts of a petty offense does not revise the legislative judgment as to the gravity of that particular offense, nor does it transform the petty offense into a serious one, to which the jury trial right would apply."For more information, see Related Questions, below.
