Hi, my mother is a tourist in texas and she did shoplifting (removed upc barcode from several items with total amount of $38.00) ,arrested, booked and bailed out for $750.00.
I just got her incident report and she was charged with CLASS A MISDEMEANOR (fraudulent destruction, etc of writing)
I do not want her to be banned to enter America, and I know if she wants to visit America again she must not be convicted with a crime which has punishment equivalent to less than 1 year jail time.
my questions:
1. if later of she gets convicted with this offense; with a lawyer is it possible to get a punishment equivalent to less than 1 year jail time?
2. if she gets convicted with CLASS A MISDEMEANOR and get a punishment equivalent to less than 1 year jail time, will she be allowed to visit america again?
Thank you very much for your help
