Not sure what your question is you may want to repost. But if the question is can they still charge you after they let you go, that would be yes as most criminal charges have a 1 or 5 year statute of limitations.
I put some blankets in a donation bin and only saw a tucked away sign saying "no bulky items, ONLY clothing and shoes" as I drove away. I would've fished the blankets out of the bin but the style of the door was like a pull-out laundry chute, it wasn't an open bin. There was... View More

Yes you could be prosecuted for dumping the blankets, but generally unless you dumped something like garbage, electronics, furniture or the like, I doudt you will see the police at your door. That being said if charged make sure you hire a lawyer.

I'm sorry but this is not the type of matter our firm handles. Either you need to contact a lawyer who handles estate litigation or civil litigation (where you are seeking damages as a result of his actions).

First the price of the items for determining the amount taken for a shoplifting charge is based on the retail price of the items not the sale price of the items thus then fact that they were on sale is irrelevant to your charge.

They can atleast speak to the Prosecution to shed some light on what has been going on and they can also do some things to force or push the State to stop sitting on your case.

You should get a response within 24 hours during normal business hours M-F, if you hired a good lawyer. Are you sure the lawyer still has permission to talk to you as the client can take this approval away from the attorney and that may be the reason the attorney is not responding to you.

I guess the first question is what is your goal here? If it is to get your son out of your house, the short answer is yes. Based on what you've written here and assuming he does not pay you any form of rent, you probably should file an ejectment action. An ejectment action is different than... View More

I am sorry to hear this. Are you the sole owner of the home? Does your son live with you as a tenant and stopped paying rent? If your son does not own the home and does not have any type of lease with you, you could seek to have him removed from your home. However, it is best to consult with an... View More

I am assuming you are referring to Mitigating Factor 14 and 13. They are separate factors that the Court must consider at sentencing. You do not have to have Factor 13 apply in order for 14 to be considered. However, Mitigating Factor 14 was just recently added several years ago so if the offense... View More
