Theft by deception charge, Middlesex County, NJ. Thx for your answer. However, it is actually being heard in Municpal Court, NOT Superior Court. The charge is for the Amt. Stated. Why is it being heard in Municipal Court?

Amounts taken over $200 and up to $500 is in Superior Court and subjects the offender to up to 18... View More

Yes you can file charges. There is a long list of possible criminal charges that can be filed against both the 19 year old and your ex-wife. The sooner you take action the less danger your daughter will be in. Good luck.

Yes you can still press charges since it is generally at least a 4th degree crime but ask the police.

In any case the outcome is always the same until it comes out of the judges mouth that no one knows. Thus it can be guilty or not guilty. Based on what you have presented it sounds like it would definitely be a guilty

Of course although you've told us what you are charged with, you have not given us the violation numbers but in general you'd be at least looking at a third degree crime which can carry 3 to 5 years in jail. This is just the penalty foremost crack charges. Do you need a lawyer that is... View More

I claimed the bottle because it was in my bag. However, no one in the vehicle was breathalyzed, not even the driver. She also did not receive... View More

By you claiming the back pack the law will then charge you with whatever is in it. They could of still charged everyone in the car, but most police try to be fair and charge the person who admits to the crime/offense. As for the loss of license for 6 months it is mandatory. That being said if I... View More

Not to my knowledge it's done a lot of the time at the sentencing hearing but it appears that that is already over. You really need to ask his attorney on what you should do that's what you paid him for.

If you acted in concert with another which is what it appears to be by your question yes, you don't need to take anything to be charged.
