I stole from walmart on 11/7/14 and have recently got a letter which I was not told about when I was brought to the back room, I attempted to steal at most $20 worth of merchandise, the letter stated to pay $50 but I am not working and have very limited funds. There were no police involved, did not go to jail and no charges pressed at the time. They only told me not to try to go on any walmart or sams club properties until 11/8/2015. What should I do?
Answer
You should apply to the Office of the Public Defender for an appointed lawyer, and you should insist on discussing your case confidentially with that lawyer a.s.a.p. Regardless, of what you do regarding the civil demand letter, the state may still prosecute you.
