Asking someone to complete a writing for you is not impermissible conduct. The contents of the writing do matter. If he swore under oath that the contents of the writing are true and accurate, and that turns out not to be the case, there could be repercussions.

It's likely because there is not a lot of assistance available for the situation you described. An insurance company has a quasi-fiduciary and contractual obligation to adjust, investigate and ultimately resolve your claim. They do not stand in the position of a creditor.

Potential criminal charges in this situation would involve giving a false statement to a police officer, obstruction of justice and perhaps perjury depending on the context.
Two citations were given for a scheduled court date. The basis of the charge is shoplifting.
A court date has not been set yet.

Theft is an offense it can have potential lifelong economic and societal consequences. Although Maryland doesn't recognize a sealing process per se, it might be possible to get the records relating to the incident expunged, depending on the disposition, e.g. a dismissal or a stet.

If you had it expunged it could be 'gone.' If it was vacated, it could be gone as well, but presumably you would have received notice. It might be referenced under a different or misspelled name. Moreover, the fact that it might not appear on case search does not negate the conviction.
