For your protection the store name was removed. That being said I am not sure what your question is. It appears you were fired and that might be it. If you have a question about the theft we would be happy to answer it for you.

For your protection the store name was removed from your post. You need to talk to a Lawyer you risk violating your probation and seeing it revoked. It will be hard to defend why you had bars in your pocket and had already went through checkstand. By the way most stores do have video your...

I cannot say why they said that. I suspect that because you live with them, thier income might come into play as well to see if you can get a PD. I cannot say for sure

You have not yet reached the felony threshold for dollar value. However this does not mean they still cant file felony charges. You need to talk to a Lawyer

It might be taking so long as they are still building a case

At $500.00 it possible (depending on state) your looking at felony charges.

Burglary is a felony! This is serious you need a Lawyer or face serious jail time. Most Attorneys offer free consultations get as many as you can. Even if you plan on asking for Public Defender get these consultations arm yourself with knowledge

As the saying goes "The man who defends himself in court has a fool as a client" Yes you need a Lawyer even if that Lawyer is a Public Defender. Whether or not you can qualify or if Diversion is available this Lawyer will know. They are not available everywhere. You should not be tried with your...

The point is if you plead guilty Judge will then sentence you. No Diversion, ACD just whatever Judge decides. Dependingon court both Diversion and ACD are basically same thing. Your Attorney will know for sure

Talk to the Lawyers you call (Call FL Lawyers) about Diversion tha tis your best optin in my view. If you click on my name it will take you to my profile from there you can PM me

Not likely Its too late since you have a court date. However you can expect a letter of "Civil Demand" from the stores Lawyers If convicted yes! That would be very unwise Start consulting Lawyers ask about Diversion It wont hurt. I recommend the one offered by NASP.

This not end of the world. You can use it as lesson later. If this site was any help at all please post something in our testimonial section

"Your Honor I wish to not enter a plea at this time and would like to take this time to request a Public defender" The Judge will instruct you from there Not likely

Your making same mistake many do. "Wanting it over" If you walk into court tomorrow and plead guilty Judge will sentence you. Now theres a chance Judge might give you diversion (or the like) but there is no guarantee. Your best option in my view is exactly what I already told you. Anything else...

Your triple post is fine. When you appear in court tomorrow plead either not guilty or stand mute. Then either request Public defender or tell Judge you wish your court date postponed so you may seek an Attorney. When you meet with either your Attorney or Public Defender ask him/her if Diversion...

They accepted your money for the error its over. You dodged a bullet on this one. Use this as a lesson and not do this again.
