If you are arrested for shoplifting, can the store keep items of yours that did not come from their store?

Answered by attorney Clayton Lockhart (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at The Lockhart Law Firm
In most states a merchant has rights to protect items that belonged to that merchant and not to items that belonged to someone else. If you are able to prove that you bought items at another location, then those items legally belong to you and not to the merchant at the store where you are accused of shoplifting. The lawyer can only give advice on what to plead on a case. The client is the one who gets to make the final call on whether to plead guilty or not guilty. If after speaking to your lawyer about all the aspects of a case and you won't your day in court, then that lawyer has to inform the court of your wishes and take the case to trial.

you need to address these false filing charges and the outstanding arrest warrant. the police have no obligation to serve you with the arrest warrant out of state. they only have to serve/deliver the warrant to your old address. the warrant remains in effect until you address the warrant. you could be arrested on a motor vehicle stop. do you have a criminal record ? if not, we may be able to address the false filing charges and arrest warrant with a contempt citation and a significant fine. you will, most likely, have to appear in court. both the fine and the legal costs are significant. please let me know if we can help. ed dimon, esq. 732-797-1600 ext 235
