[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]BTW, FELONY shoplifting? What did she boost?[/quote]

A car?[/quote]

Haha, no not a car. She stole some jewelry, but the amount was 201.99. Evidently, if it's over $200, it's a felony. [/quote]

Wow. Is this her first time getting caught? You definitely need a lawyer. I would assume that they can get it reduced to a misdemeanor. Hopefully she's learned her lesson. You would be wise to make her work to pay off the legal fees, which will run into the many thousands. [/quote]

The assigned public defender is working in DD's best interest. Should I not rely on that? [/quote]

The assigned public defender is working in DD's best interest, along with the dozens and dozens of other cases on his or her plate at this exact moment.  Even the best, most well-intentioned public defenders frequently can't do a great job - and they know it, and wouldn't deny it - because they are swamped by their workload.

If you can at all afford it, pay for a lawyer.[/quote]
