What is the name of your state? California
An old roommate goes down to the post office and puts a hold on my mail. After a week of NO mail I ask the mail man if I had any mail, he tells me about the hold that was placed on my mail. So the ex-roomate takes all my mail from the post office which is never recoveried.
I read that the penalty is 5 years 250,000 dollar fine, and is a federal crime. So my question is, should I go thru the trouble of following up on this? Is the actual sentence going to be $1000 fine and a slap on the wrist? I mean stealing someones mail should be a serious crime. I just do not want to spend all this time if the punishment will not fit the crime.
