The penalty depends upon several factors, a few are, the state law pertaining to the crime committed, whether or not the juvenile has previous convictions or problems with authorities and if the state has a statute that allows a juvenile to be prosecuted as an adult.
In the state of WV:
1st offense shoplifting: Misdemeanor charge, less than $20 fine, possibly over $100 court fee, and less than $50 value is $50 restitution to the store or equal to the value if over $50. Plus, no trespassing is allowed on property of store. If this is violated you can and will be arrested for trespassing.
In what country and/or state??
ADDED: Depending on the jurisdiction and at what dollar level the separation between misdemeanor and felony is set by statute . . . if the amount stolen was less than that amount it will be classified as a misdemnanor, above that level it will be a felony charge.
it really depends on how old you are.
i was arrested for shoplifting and I'm only 14.
they put me in handcuffs, walked me in front of people i knew in the mall, take you to a holding cell while they contact your parent(s) and then you are taken to a juvinille center. sometimes you can stay DAYS.
please, be careful. its horrible.
now i am required to go to tutoring, counseling, and complete tons of community service.
Punishment: For shoplifting goods worth $300 or less, the law calls for misdemeanor punishment. Shoplifting goods worth more than $300 is a felony punishable by 1 to 10 years. However, the punishments are enhanced if the person has prior shoplifting charges.
You either go to juvi or have a legal guardian pay a fine
you will either give you a court date, do community service and give you a fine. and this will be a minor charge on your record and will be erased when you turn 18.
A sentence of probation is a good possibility.
