How long will the police take to send the letter and will my parents find out if I got caught shoplifting?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Andrea Rogers (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at The Rogers Law Firm
Since it's a misdemeanor (less than $500) the police have up to 1 year to decide to press charges. The letter will be sent to your parents, so yes, they will find out. Maximum penalty for misdemeanor shoplifting is 1 year in jail and $1,000 fine.

Is it legal to get money in lieu of pressing charges?

Answered by attorney Harley Ives Gutin
Criminal Law lawyer at Gutin Wolverton
If handled appropriately it could be legal. However, a criminal charge is the State versus a citizen and the victim has input but does not fully control what the State does. So, if the crime has not been reported and is not reported then it is between you and the owner. On the other hand if the kids caused a little damage and the individual is asking for an exaggerated sum then his request could be seen as a form of extortion.

What are my options if I am charged with petty retail theft?

Answered by attorney Michael D. Fluke
Criminal Law lawyer at Michael D. Fluke, P.A.
It is a matter of comfort, but you may not need an attorney to enter into a diversion program. You may consider going to your first court appearance and finding out if you are going to be offered diversion. Most diversion programs do not allow you to expunge the case upon completion, but will let you seal the case. I suggest you at least consult an experienced Criminal Defense attorney to discuss your case in greater detail and learn all of your rights and options. Good luck.
