You should take care of the criminal matter first. Get a dismissal or acquittal and then you can effectively pursue a civil claim.

Hey, I know this case is probably pretty overwhelming, however, any attorney will need more information to answer your questions. There are so many factors that will be needed to be considered before any of us attempt to answer your question. I hope this helps.
My mother was convicted of shoplifting of a SMALL item and was around $5 or $2. We paid bail yesterday and have court on May. Will she be jailed as this is her first offense? Or, can we keep her out as we already gave the jail money?

Accident is a defense to criminal charges but the attorney will need more information to see if that would be a viable defense in your particular case. Now the fact that it's your"exes" mailbox may pose a little bit of an issue (especilly if you don't live close by)

The card was linked to his personal account. How much trouble could he be in? We live in Georgia.

Felony theft by taking, and financial transaction card fraud. He could be looking at some jail time and a felony on his record. I would encourage him to speak to an attorney.
Additionally, if that 16-year-old was under custody of the other parent, would the first parent be prosecuted at any time they stepped back onto U.S. soil? Or would they be a criminal for the rest of their life?
