Hello All,
My 18 years old son got caught shoplifting in MD. He paid the 167 civil fine but has not got a letter from the court about a criminal trial. I checked online and there is a court date. Should we honor the date online even though we did not get the letter from the court? We have not contacted a lawyer because I feel he is guilt and should pay the prize. Is it normal to get a trial date even though we got a letter from Target that the fine was paid? Any help will be appreciated.
