If you did more than you are saying like fight the security officer or something it could be worse.

    I never said that it WAS a felony, I said that there are felonies for theft of and under $30 in the United States. And my Screen name is ChihuahuaMomma, not Chiquita Mamma.

    I said your LINK says it is a summary and does not say felony.
    Sorry I spelled your name wrong. I should have double checked my spelling is getting off when I try to rely on my memory.

    I'm from ontario.. and have previously been charged with the same thing...
    What I did was, I just went to court on my own and the court attorney there helped me speak to the crown.. and all I got was community service... after I completed the hours, the whole thing was withdrawn...


    Hope this helps

    Yeah that is exactly what type of things I always hear from 'kids' from Canada.
    I call anybody under 21 a kid;) :D

    That's fine. I didn't provide that link as proof, I provided it as POSSIBLE help.

    I didn't say you provided it as proof either.
    I was simply saying that the link says summary and therefore it is not a felony and it also says it is dischargable so she doesn't have to worry about it being on her permanent record.
