They are a minor and they didn't get charged just let go from the company so didn't need to go to court or anything. Just got a very small amount of money taken out of their check. the employer said it wouldn't go on their record. But then she just got a letter later two weeks later saying she owes $50 because of theft? so is this on their record now? is so, for how long?

If she was not arrested or charged with a crime, then she doesn't have a criminal record. All she has is a poor work record.
She needs to pay the additional $50.00 owed to keep it that way. Plus, she might not want to use that employer as a reference.

If the company has already taken the money out of her wages, they can not ask for more money at a later date. If she and the company had agreed an amount, that is all they are entitled to. However, if no figure was mentioned and she had agreed that the company can take what is owed, from her wage, then the company has the right to pursue any shortfall as a "debt". The company can pass the debt to a Debt Collecting Company and / or take her to a Civil Court to recover the debt. As no complaint was made, she does not and will not get a criminal record for the offence but any future potential employer may check with that company for a reference Re: her attendance, timekeeping, her duties and her honesty etc. That is when she can be made to pay for the crime that she committed as you can guarantee that the company will not mention theft. I don't know about the US but in the UK, big company's records are usually kept for a minimum of 25 years. Smaller companies usually keep 10 years. The only exception to Company Law etc. is when a company becomes insolvent and is liquidated. The liquidater will normally keep the records for up to 5 years after insolvency. However, as this is more of a personel issue and not a trading issue, Company policy may apply. It will stay on record for as long as they keep employee records, which is likely to be a minimum of five years. However, with computers, many companies don't delete ex-employee records, at all. Finally, if the company runs Pension Scheme, all employee records will be kept until a time after the death of an employee / ex-employee.

If she has not been arrested OR charged with a crime via the courts there is no record. If the letter was from the company stating that she still owes $50 better she pay it and not risk a petty theft charge.

Get a No Cost Background Check Scan at https://bitly.im/aNTJo
Its a sensible way to start. The site allows you to do a no cost scan simply to find out if any sort of data is in existence. A smaller analysis is done without cost. To get a detailed report its a modest payment.
You may not realize how many good reasons there are to try and find out more about the people around you. After all, whether you're talking about new friends, employees, doctors, caretakers for elderly family members, or even significant others, you, as a citizen, have a right to know whether the people you surround yourself with are who they say they are. This goes double in any situation that involves your children, which not only includes teachers and babysitters, but also scout masters, little league coaches and others. Bottom line, if you want to find out more about someone, you should perform a background check.

Unless she was arrested and charged with a crime... their is no criminal record.
But, in the future if an employer does a background check via her Social Security number and finds and speaks to her former employer she is going to be found out as a known thief. Its never a good idea to steal.

Well it's going to stay there, and it's going to make it hard for them to get a job because nobody in their right mind is going to trust them, especially not a retail company.
IF they're charged or taken to court... Something that's not reported can't be on the record because there's no record of it.
Though they're going to get a real crappy reference from whatever company they stole from. THAT will be on the "record" for sure...

If the case is not filed in court, the collection of the amount of the thing taken could only be a simple collection case.

No..but the laws say the companies can collect punitive damages from the accussed..whether or not a conviction is present.
If you do not pay they could send it to collections affecting your credit.
