Hi I was caught shoplifting at a Famous-Barr. I really could've afforded the items, but I was bored out of my mind and mostly toying with the idea. But yeah, long story short, they caught me. I froze up and signed some documents. The one I received a copy of states that I have to pay a Civil Demand claim. The guy who asked me to follow him asked me if I had any questions, but I had a huge lump in my throat and barely said "No." I'm ready to pay this fee, because, well, I did deserve it. But I'm curious as to whether this will go on my permanent record or not. The fee I have to pay is $250, according to the man. I was not officially arrested, but they took my photograph and such... what happens next? Will I be okay if I pay the fine? Please help me, I'm really quite desperate and I'm terrified. I'm partially glad they caught me, but I'm very confused about whats going to happen. Many thanks!
Also, these were not store employees. The famous barr is attached to a mall and the Document I signed says that all questions after the receipt of the letter I will receive should be directed to the Law Offices of Olonoff, Asen & Serebro, LLP.
