    Caught shoplifiting Nova Scotia
    Hello, I was recently caught shoplifting from a grocery store in Nova Scotia and I was caught stealing less than $90 worth of merchandise. Prior to this, I had been arrested for a break and enter and theft x3 which was 2 years previous to this. I was given the ability to be put in the Adult Diversion program for this and completed all the steps for me to get out without criminal charges. I am very worried that shoplifting from this store which will be my second offense will leave me in jail and restrict me from travelling for the next time frame of my life. Is there anything I can do to get out without receiving criminal charges? Is there any recommendations that anyone can offer for me to help alleviate this situation? My court date is in a month and I have not gotten in contact with a lawyer as of yet. PLEASE, I NEED ADVICE!

    Regards,

    Dave

    Hello Dave:

    My advice is to do what you have not done as of yet. HIRE A LAWYER.
