Me and my cousin got caught stealing at Walmart merchandise was 28 dollars I am 20 don't have a criminal record will be the first time going to court and paying a ticket. We were taken into the LP's office where they got out information the police where called but they let us go since they where taking too long to get to the store. I don't know what to expect at court and will this be in my record if so how can I get it off my record?
 
I love it when criminals whine about the consequences after they get caught.

What you can expect in court is to be convicted and then you will have a criminal record.

I suggest you hire yourself a lawyer who is smart enough to figure a way out for you.

You certainly aren't.

Appear in court as instructed, plead not guilty, ask the court if you qualify for a public defender.

Be smart, don't admit to anything and don't discuss any aspect of your case.
For your well being, don't break any laws while this is pending.
After this is over, don't break their laws.
 
You need to get a lawyer if you can afford one. If not, when you go to court, you should plead not guilty & ask for a public defender & talk only to the PD. (A PD is a lawyer) You might ask the PD about ACD or diversion to protect your record.
 
I am a Retail Theft consultant and answer questions like yours daily/ Do as instructed plead not guilty and request public defender. When you meet this lawyer ask about plea options like Diversion that protect your record. It was also unwise to name store on public forum
