I am being charge with fraud under $5, 000, I have a student legal lawyer.
She suggested me to go for the alternative measures program, because I do not
Want a crinimal record. First time I went t o court I said I was not quilty. It was
Internet fraud, where someone gave m e a check because I ask for so me money.
The check was the bank no longer there . It is from the states, I sign the check but was not cashed.

Is it true I have to say I am guilty of this charge and do the alternative program and will not get a record. Because when I went to court 2 weeks ago I said I was not guilty.

I just don't want a record and if I did go on trial and lost I could get a record is that true? Thanks Ronnie e-mail [email protected]

Follow the advice of your lawyer.

You plead guilty, do the program and your record is erased.

Everyone pleads not guilty the first time, you would be stupid not to.

Hi there were there customers just run away from my restaurant this evening . If I know who they are , can I sue them . Or something else I can do . Thank you .

Tnx to your reply... I'm going to work now but I really feel weak because this happen just yesterday... I hope I get some advice and prayers cause it's really make me cry for this problem..

I am 35 year old woman and was a cashiewr and was charged with theft under $ 5000. Would they send me to jail this is my very first offence and my last one.. Please get back to me and let me know Thanks! I am very remoresful and feel awful about what I did

I will say I have not paid them back yet but am willing to do so. This is my first offfence and am wondering if they will put me in jail? I sure hope not. I am willing to do whatever itt takes so I do not end up in jail! I am very remoresful and am feeling awful for what I did. I am very very scared! As far as how much I took I am going to guess and say about $ 1000. I have mental health issues and was on medication during this so cannot remember doing this at all, and I know that is no excuse. I suffer with severe depression and get panic/ anxiety attacks quite often. I am under the care of a Pychatrist and Pyhcologist as well. Reply when you can. Thank You!
