    Theft compensation
    If I lost a laptop, and the culprit is caught, will I be able to get back any monetary compensation. Because the thief sold my laptop to a second hand shop.

    Can I ask for compensation from the thief? If yes, what are the procedures for me to do to get back the money from the sale of my laptop.

    Thanks!

    When he goes to Court on the theft charge, be there and ask the Judge for this relief. The DA should be happy to keep you informed.

    You can also sue in Small Claims but I don't think you need to, at least not where I live.
