I was caught shoplifting for $33 which is petty theft. The police were not called and I was only given a civil demand notice. Do I need to go to court? The store said they were prosecuting to the fullest extent of the law so I'm a lil confused. When I called up the Civil Deman Notice people they said I would only be fined since the police were not called and I wasnt given a slip to call me in or whatever. Also, will this be on my permanent record or is this like cutting a deal with the store. Plz help I'm still scared.
