What's next for former Green MP Golriz Ghahraman's legal career is not yet determined - after being convicted on shoplifting charges today.

Judge June Jelas has ordered her to pay $1600 in fines, plus $260 in court costs, and isn't requiring supervision.

The Herald's Craig Kapitan says nothing's stopping her applying for her law licence again.

He says her lawyer had insistently argued a conviction would be a significant hurdle to convincing the Law Society she's fit to practice.

"The Crown noted that a conviction doesn't necessarily mean she's automatically barred, the Law Society would have to look at the whole picture, like the judge did."
