Can my husband file criminal charges against me for using his credit card?

Cynthia Russell Henley
Answered by attorney Cynthia Russell Henley (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Cynthia Henley
If you are not a signer on his card, then technically they could accept charges. You do not have permission to use his card and if you signed his name without his permission then you committed fraud.

Daughter got theft under 50, never entered the store, the thief ran to her car and she drove away, if this a legit charge?

Richard Keith Oliver
Answered by attorney Richard Keith Oliver (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at The Law Office of Rick Oliver
It depends. If your daughter knew what the "thief" was doing in the store, then she can be charged as a party to the offense, which means she would be every bit as culpable as the actual thief. Her best defense is that she had no clue what the person was doing in the store. Also, since the case is a Class C ticket, she may have other options available to ensure it doesn't become a permanent conviction on her record.

First off, I'm sorry you find yourself in this situation.  It's always hard when a family member gets in trouble.  Unfortunately, all the police need to CHARGE someone is one witness (the 'victim,' in this case).  But for a CONVICTION, the standard becomes much higher: beyond a reasonable doubt.  You need to find your son an aggressive and trial-ready criminal defense lawyer who can point out the problems with the State's case against your son.  Many of us offer free consultations.  Call a few lawyers, meet with them, then hire the one you believe can help your son.  Good luck, hope I helped!   Cordt Akers Criminal Defense Lawyer (713) 426-2244
