Can you advise me on what to do if my ex partner obtained some person information about me?

If you want to prosecute, then file a police report and try to get them to do so. Only police and DA can prosecute. If you mean you want to sue, then you will have to show me that you have a case with MERIT [provable case with a likelihood of winning], VALUE [substantial provable damages] and COLLECTABILITY [defendant with substantial assets or insurance], before you would have proper grounds to bring your legal claims in a lawsuit.

What could I face after being caught of shoplifting?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Terry Alan Nelson (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Nelson & Lawless
You face misdemeanor criminal charges with up to 6-12 months in jail plus fines up to $1000. The actual outcome will likely be a plea bargain to something far less. When charged with any crime, the proper questions are, can any evidence obtained in a search or statement be used against you, can you be convicted, and what can you do? A little free advice you should have taken: exercise the 5th Amendment right to SHUT UP and do NOT talk to police or anyone about the case except with and through an attorney. If you don't know how to represent yourself effectively against an experienced prosecutor intending to convict, then hire an attorney who does, who will try to get a dismissal, charge reduction, diversion, programs, or other decent outcome through motions, plea bargain, or take it to trial if appropriate. Your attorney might be able to get a first time offender a deal that avoids jail, and might even avoid a conviction on the permanent record.
