What is the name of your state? Florida
My 14 yr old was caught shoplifting a $3.99 item. She has been seen by the State attorney and she has to attend teen court and a two night consequences of Crime class.Also 3 Peer circle sessions and community service project.
We recieved a letter from a law firm saying we had to pay $200.00 civil penalty. If we don't pay, they will consider further civil action, plus higher fees. Is this for real? Can they make us pay? They did not loose any merchandise. Any thoughts?
Thank you!
