Hello,
I was recently caught shoplifting $40 worth of merchandise from a popular store. I was detained by LPO inside the store, and they collected all of my information. I paid the civil demand, and recently received a letter saying I had a court date. I still have a month left, and have started trying to get legal consultations from as many sources as possible. However, I still do have a few questions.
If I find through a consultation that an attorney might be able to get me a Diversion program, approximately how much would this cost?
Would you recommend taking shoplifting classes prior to my court hearing, and tellthe judge about it?
Is shoplifting in Nevada an automatic grounds for loss of scholarships?
Would writing a letter to the DA have any benefits?
Thank you for your time, and any additional advice would be appreciated. I'm very remorseful for my actions, and understand what I did was completely wrong and inexcusable. I can't sleep at night, and I'm very embarrassed. However, rather than wallow in self pity, I want to take all the time I have and be as productive as possible.
