What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? In NJ, A friend’s daughter (age 161/2 yrs) her first day alone with “new friends” got into trouble in a department store. They were caught in possession of items, which they did not pay for. The police were involved. The items with our daughter were less than $10. Offence under N.J.S 2C:20-11
they received a letter from the store’s lawyers noting that the store is planning a civil claim. On the other hand if they pay $150 (w/in 20 days) they will release the civil penalty claim.
they paid the money yesterday.
The question: were they obligated to pay the money? And what would have happened if we did not?
