i stole from my previous employer. i had never stolen before and they called the cops and i agreed to pay the money for the item with restitution becuase it wasnt in my posession anymore. i was given a ticket for petty larceny. i am a college student and dont want this to show on my record. i have no previous criminal background and dont intend to. What should i do?

ACCEPTEDCheck Mark

"Your honor, would you please include in your orders on this case a provision that the charges will be dismissed at the end of six months so long as I do not have any further or new charges against me?"

Always good idea to bring a lawyer if you have (and can afford) one - if you cant afford one they may provide one for you.

Best,
