Q: I was charged with misuse of credit card of $ 600.00 (F5).Is it possible thru arbitration to red to M1
Last fall, I had been struggling with alcohol after a myriad of traumatic life events occurred( have all proof/ documents). While intoxicated, I was at Hollywood Gaming in Austintown,OH. I played slots, but mostly used Ohio Lottery Machine to purchase tickets, as I had previously done (have bank statements to corroborate) . Approx on 10/7/20, while in a blackout, (not recalling I was even there until I saw bank records)- I received a call from Det. Toth , APD who filled me in on what happened. Per video surveillance , I was playing slots, noticed I dropped items/ credit cards from my purse on floor, and picked up someone’s credit card, as well. While intoxicated, I did not even realize it wasn’t mine and alternated using my standard credit cards at Lottery Machine. However, it is clear now that I must have used another’s card. Det.Toth contacted me and I asked if I could reimburse victim. Yet he filed charges and retired from APD since then. I went to &finished rehab per recommendation
A: If you are facing a 5th degree felony you should retain counsel on the matter to discuss possible defenses and plea deals.
