What will happen in court and how much I should expect to pay for a $42 shoplifting case?

Answered by attorney Francis John Cowhig (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Francis John Cowhig
Depending on the amount allegedly stolen, shoplifting can be met with a mere citation (infraction), or charged as a misdemeanor or even a felony, with possible jail sentences of 6 months to 3 years. It will be up to the D.A. to determine how the crime will be charged. I strongly suggest that you contact an experienced criminal law attorney for a face-to-face consultation and give him/her all of the facts surrounding your case. He/she would then be in a better position to analyze your case and advise you of your options.

Is it a good thing that the police had me called someone over 18 to sign out after being caught stealing?

Criminal Law lawyer at Freeborn Law Offices P.S.
If you are asking whether that means you will be charged as a minor, the answer is "No". You will be charged as an adult. With the amount you stole, you are looking at felony charges. My advice to you: hire an attorney. Not only do you have the criminal implications, but also the implications that will go beyond; like how it will impact your college and any future job prospects.

How can you drop a charge on your husband for domestic violence?

In order to "drop charges," the complaining witness must go to the police. However in New York, once charges are brought, only the prosecutor controls whether the case will continue or not.
