What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? louisiana
I know what I did was wrong and I am ashamed of myself. I was caught stealing 10.00 worth of merchandise from a grocery store on march 2nd of this year...i was not arrested...i went to the court date...i was put on unsupervised probation for a year...that court date was on april 14th...
well...here is where it gets messy.....i was arrested march 20th for shoplifting again...well i was given a ticket to appear in court. My court date is july 2nd for that one which is in a different parish in the state. My best friend died in a car accident that day and I am not using that as an excuse...I just did not give a care in the world when I commited the crime....
I am on probation now and I have stayed out of trouble...will the fact I am on probation effect my case? Even though I was not put on probation till after the second crime was commited? What punishment am I looking at possibly? I am chronically ill and jail would not be good for me at all. I know I did a crime. I am quite ashamed I did it. I am on ssi....if they give you a fine, do you have to pay it right away? Thank you...would it be easier if I just plead guilty right away and got it over with when my arraignment is july 2nd? thnx....
