shoplifting and delinquency to a minor

[Stephanielove]

I live in las Vegas,I was caught shoplifting a couple weeks ago about $55 worth of merchandise at a local store. Im 18 years old, first offense. Also I was with a 14 year old and 10 year old and got charged for petty larceny and contributing to a delinquency of a minor. My questions are what should I do? Should I get a lawyer? What should I expect in court in two weeks? I'm on my own no one is helping me with anything, never been in trouble with the law.. just need some answers this is really bothering me.

Stay away from ALL CHILDREN.

Appear in court, plead not guilty, ask for a lawyer, use your right to remain silent.

Meet with the lawyer, after you know who it will be.

Then you wait.

With the additional charges ACD or Diversion may not be an option. do as instructed above plead not guilty and either hire a Lawyer or request public defender. When you meet with this Lawyer ask about plea options
