What is the name of your state? CT
Ok well I'm 17 years old about a month ago me and a few friends were invited to a private golf course after hours by another friend (we'll call him tom) whose uncle owns the property. Now we were told by him that since his family owned the property that he could therefore use it. While there we ate food drank beer and soda but did no damage. Now I find out the property owner is filing charges against us for larceny of the beer soda and food and trespassing on his property. I was told by tom that the property was owned by his family and that he had the rights to use it as he see fit. I am wondering what the possibility's are of counter suing for serving alcohol to minors and if it matters that he told us we could be there. And how I can put this on tom and clear myself I have no previous record and only have been to court once for truancy. I know I need a lawyer but am looking for advice before they get a warrant for my arrest. Thanks
