I got caught shoplifting at Kmart. They are going out business and having their final sales. The amount of the merchandise was $28. I was not arrested but a police officer did come. He wrote me a ticket (I guess you would call it) to appear at the city hall building. He said something about munciple ordinance. He said it was a civil matter and would not appear on my record. He told me I won't be arrested. What are all possibilities that could happen at the hearing? I am a nursing student and made a dumb mistake. Can if ever show up on a background check?
