There is no set period of time. After law enforcement authorities are satisfied that they have probable cause to arrest, then a summons or a warrant will be served. However, the accused does not have to speak with them or answer their questions and may have an attorney.

Don't ever admit to anything and CERTAINLY don't talk any one any more without an attorney! Theft Over $1000 is a felony and there is no statute of limitations, therefore charges could be filed at any time. The BEST thing you can do immediately is get the $1300 to pay back ASAP and hire an attorney to know when is the best time to pay it back.
