As an adult it's pretty serious. If you are asked "Did you intend to steal before entering the store?" and you reply "Yes" they also sting you with burglary. Shoplifting is a crime of moral turpitude, which until expunged is a very bad thing. Most places will not hire you. Retail stores hold various databases of shoplifters.
The fine somewhere along the lines of $1000 and 48 hours of community service.
If you have mental illness and suffer from kleptomania, you might get a lower sentence.
If you have a lawyer, which I suggest getting, as $500 is cheaper than $1000 you will also probably get a better sentence.
Good luck and don't steal. Crime doesn't pay.
What is the punishment for first time shoplifting of $22.00 in a Walmart in Las Vegas. I accidently placed 1 small towel, dog bones, and suntain oil in a purse. The purse was NOT carried outside but inside the register line. I only took one step outside to see where my car was. I did not have the items with me. They were inside the store.
cut either fingers, or hand, or whole arm.. I think left hand will be first priority..

The Consequences of a Shoplifting conviction can range from: * Shoplifting: First offense a minimum of 30 days to a maximum of 90 days. * Shoplifting subsequent offense: for a minimum of 3 months to a maximum of 5 months.If your under 17 years of age then you're a juvenile under Massachusetts Law. You can be charged with many crimes in Juvenile Court and zealous advocacy is essential to ensure that what took place becomes a problem of the past with minimal effect to your future. As a juvenile no matter what the crime you have a full life to live and you shouldn't begin it with a criminal conviction. You also have to be aware of collateral consequences. For example, if you're charged with a crime and you're a student in a public school you could be expelled. If you are expelled or suspended then I am ready to defend your rights before the school superintendent or principal.
I received a citation for shoplifting beer for the first time, do you know what the penalties may be.
If it truly was your first-ever offense, you may be offered community service or perhaps a very minimal term in jail (one weekend?). No one can guess what is in the mind of the judge who will hear your case.
It depends which country you're in. In the UK - they'd be put before a youth court, and could be sentenced to community service (for a first offence) or a term in a young offenders prison (for a repeat offender).
