What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? VA
I have been alleged with criminal trespassing and destruction of property under 5K by a crazy neighbor.
The alleging party has requested
1) I pay for the damage
2) I write a letter of apology( which must also be a letter of admission)
If I do that the case will be closed.
In the interest of settling this issue as cost effectively as possible, it would seem that NOT going to trial would be prudent, even though I'm confident we would win the case. I'd rather spend 5K and NOT HAVE the satisfaction of proving him wrong, than spend 25K and HAVE the satisfaction of proving him wrong.
Can someone help provide me with some options on how to prevent the Letter of Apology with Admission of the Crime from being used by him for other purposes. Basically, I'll write anything he wants me to write provided he cant legally do anything with it or show anyone the letter.
