If I'm 16 and got caught shoplifting, what's going to happen?

Answered by attorney Stephen Lewis Freeborn (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Freeborn Law Offices P.S.
First of all, at 16, the court does not have to consider you a "minor". You can be cited into adult court. Shoplift is punishable by a maximum sentence of one year in jail and a $5,000.00 fine. Whether or not you do jail time, is ultimately up to the judge. However, even if you don't do jail time, you can still have a conviction on your record. If this happens, you will have to disclose your conviction on all job applications. How many potential employers want to hire someone who steals!!!! In addition, lots of colleges, in their application process, are also asking about criminal convictions. Additionally, if you have a criminal conviction you may be disqualified from obtaining federal loans and grants for college. As you can see, shoplift is a very stupid crime with very far reaching and long term implications. My advice: retain an attorney who may be able to help you from getting a conviction on your record. Another piece of advice: You are not a kid any more. You can do anything you want with your life..... good or bad... as long as you are willing to accept the consequences that result from the decisions you make. Try thinking about the consequences BEFORE you act, rather than after, because by then, more often than not, it is too late.

What can I do if someone has posted nude pictures of me without my consent?

You can try to contact facebook or wherever they were posted. You could try to sue the girlfriend, but my question would be what money does she have.

Can I drop the charges after my boyfriend accidentally hit me?

You can try. But there is no guarantee that the DA will drop them. But as an alleged victim of domestic violence, you have specific rights you can assert that might help.
