Lil Za may have just benefited in a BIG way from Justin Bieber's legal woes ... because we've learned his felony vandalism charge for breaking a jail phone will be REDUCED to a misdemeanor.
Za was busted during the search of Bieber's home in January after cops found MDMA (Ecstasy) and Oxycodone. He was taken to jail where he flew into a rage and broke the jail phone. For that, he was charged with FELONY vandalism.
The L.A. County D.A. has agreed to reduce the charge to a misdemeanor because they say the phone was not even worth $400 -- and under the law ... vandalizing property worth less than $400 is a misdemeanor.
The D.A. will not charge Justin Bieber with felony vandalism for the egg throwing incident, and the damage there approached $20K. It would be pretty difficult to reconcile charging Bieber with a misdemeanor and Za with a felony.
As for Za's drug charge ... we're told the likely disposition will be a drug diversion program, where Za would plead guilty to felony drug possession, but after completing a drug ed course and keeping his nose clean for a year ... the charge would be erased from his record.
