Were the police involved?

I believe you (or, rather, your parents) can be held liable for a substantial civil assessment ... up to $250, I think (but it might be higher). And that's if no court is involved. If you go to court and lose, it might be higher.

Oh! And it also depends on what state you are in. If the "916" in your handle refers to the 916 area code, then you are in the Sacramento area of CA.

your parents will be receiving a letter soon from the store advising them how much they will owe for your shoplifting. plus, you will be barred from going back to walmart.

My response:

You're about the 5th person today who wrote in about stealing from Wal-Mart.

Why is Wal-Mart such a huge target for thieves? What does Wal-Mart sell - - gold plated products?

The laws change state to state and year to year, but when I was about your age I got caught shoplifting at wal-mart. I returned the stuff, there was no fine, but I was banned from Wal-Mart for a year (and grounded for about that long). My case was filed in 1 year, providing I didn't get in any more trouble. In other words, it's not on my record.

Good luck. (and stop stealing!!! ;) )

My response:

I'll tell you what she DIDN'T "steal". She didn't steal the English language! Try learning how to properly use it. The question should have been, "What did you steal, and how much was it worth."

I wish I had a stole...a nice mink one!

I stole 2 bottles of nail polish and a stupid little one-time use polaroid camera. If you're wondering, it was not worth it! My dad kicked my butt and grounded me for like, 7 months.

IAAL, if you read this - What kind of a mood are you in and how much do you love me today?

My response:

I'm supposing the "grounding" occurred only last week!

I’m in the mood for love simply because you’re near me
Funny but when you’re near me, I’m in the mood for love.
Heaven was in your eyes, bright as the stars we’re under,
Or is it any wonder, I’m in the mood for love.
Why stop to think of whether this little dream might fade,
We’ll put our hearts together - now we are one, I’m not afraid.
If there’s a cloud above, if it should rain, we’ll let it.
But for tonight forget it, I’m in the mood for love.

You know how old I am!!! It was over 8 years ago.

You always make me smile, do you know that? So now, at the risk of you getting wicked pissy at me....

I know I'm beating at a dead horse, I know you've already said your piece. Will you boot tami123? She's so bothersome, and has offered legal advice 4 times, and made fun of other members of the forum at least 50. Please!??

And, if you're mad at me for asking....I'll send you pics of me in a bikini!!!! ;)

My response:

I can't, just yet. I haven't seen where's she's crossed the line. However, I did tell her to leave Paridise alone and, if she doesn't, that would be crossing the line, subjecting her to immediate punishment - - like tying her up.

Hey, send the pics anyway! Mary will forward them on to me!

(I gotta see this!)
