umm

It was considered a felony because....

This wasn't any shop-lifting right? This was either Breaking and Entering or something else more heinous. right?

Why don't you write the code number of the felony charge here... Then
we can go from there.

 

[quadracer5895]

Im not sure what the code number is... We were not caught shoplifting, we were caught afterwards. So basically we got arrested for possesion of stolen properity.

anyone have an idea or a website that might help me find out? Thanks

Need numbers

Quad... you must have some paperwork??
I will help... just don't know what the actual Felony is?

You are a minor? how old?

 

[quadracer5895]

I am a minor, im 15. The only paperwork I got was through the mail that told me the court date. The police told us that it was a felony because we had stolen over $200 worth of stuff? Otherwise it would of been a misdamedor(sp?). We had gotten mug shots and fingerprinted if that helps at all. Thank you ENASNI

Gee

I really tried to look up New Jerseys Penalties...
I couldn't find much.
Have your parents gotten you a lawyer?
Did you cooperate, or were there any problems with the arrest?

You will probably go to juvenile court, it would be good if you tried to do restitution to the people who you stole from, so that you could tell the judge that.

Most likely probabtion, a fine... ? I don't know kid.
I can tell you are scared... GOOD.. means this won't happen again.
You had a clean record GOOD... that will work for you.

Good luck...post back with what happened

 

[quadracer5895]

Will do ENASNI.. Thanks for all your help!

Hey Bud,

First step is obviously hire a great attorney.. next never admit guilt unless caught red handed; and still then never admit. you and your buddy will beat that petty **** if you have a good lawyers that's it. This a case of reduction to misdemeanor or beating it all together if you hire the right attorney..

My response:

Depends. Are you a Black or White kid. If you're Black, play the "race card"! If you're White, blame it on some Black kid! Start pointing fingers!
