What is the name of your state?
- CA
im 26 yrs of age, and from a rite aid store I had attempted to walk out with 3 or 4 single batteries. They were recovered in extreme 'merchantable condition', never opened, and the total value of all the batteries was $15.00. Ive given them no i.d, but was honest with all my info. I just received the attorneys letter and it says,
"Pursuant to CA. penal code, section 490.5(b)(c), rite aid corporation may proceed with a civil penalty claim against you.
You may settle this matter by making payment to us in the amount of $300 within 20 days of the date of this letter. Upon receipt of full payment and clearance of funds, you will receive a written release of the civil penalty claim".
my question- do i have any choices of taking counter action, I think its pretty bizarre, but should i file anything in return, or will i be wasting my time?What is the name of your state?
