From the Penal Code:

666. Every person who, having been convicted of petty theft, grand
theft, auto theft under Section 10851 of the Vehicle Code, burglary,
carjacking, robbery, or a felony violation of Section 496 and having
served a term therefor in any penal institution or having been
imprisoned therein as a condition of probation for that offense, is
subsequently convicted of petty theft, then the person convicted of
that subsequent offense is punishable by imprisonment in the county
jail not exceeding one year, or in the state prison.


And,


18. Except in cases where a different punishment is prescribed by
any law of this state, every offense declared to be a felony, or to
be punishable by imprisonment in a state prison, is punishable by
imprisonment in any of the state prisons for 16 months, or two or
three years; provided, however, every offense which is prescribed by
any law of the state to be a felony punishable by imprisonment in any
of the state prisons or by a fine, but without an alternate sentence
to the county jail, may be punishable by imprisonment in the county
jail not exceeding one year or by a fine, or by both.


Or,

19. Except in cases where a different punishment is prescribed by
any law of this state, every offense declared to be a misdemeanor is
punishable by imprisonment in the county jail not exceeding six
months, or by fine not exceeding one thousand dollars ($1,000), or by
both.


They will likely charge the felony and offer a deal to a misdemeanor.

Speak to an attorney.
