If you are under 18, and you are convicted, you can get your record sealed, and it will not affect you. If this is the case, stop stealing now, before you do ruin your life.
If you are over 18, an you are convicted, it will make it impossible to get a job in any retail store, and in many places where you will handle money or property.

It certainly won't help your chances. Think about it, if you had to hire a person with a criminal record or a person with a clean record who do you think is likely to get the job. You don't indicate how old you are which will in most states have bearing on your situation. As a juvenile usually the crime is expunged when you reach the age of an adult. There are also programs available in most states for first time offenders under a certain age which allows for the case to be sealed or removed from your record if you stay out of future trouble. Don't blow it, this really is a last chance. Consult with your attorney about your options. Good luck.

It certainly isn't going to help. You will possibly have a conviction for theft, which is never good. Many employers will not hire you (who wants a thief on staff?). I assume you knew that taking something that was not yours was illegal prior to doing it? And in knowing that, I assume you knew that if you got caught, you would be arrested? So, you weighed the risks, said F it and acted antisocial. Now you will suffer whatever consequences may come of it. That is part of being a big boy or girl.
All to be filed under things you maybe should have thought about a wee bit longer, before stealing from someone.

given this is a civil remember, it won't flow away while she turns 18. If she refuses to pay, they'd record a lawsuit in small claims courtroom. in the event that they do, it could have an unfavourable impact on her credit status and would forestall her from getting any style of non-public loan, including a pupil very own loan. Your chum have been given very fortunate they did no longer press quotes and would evaluate taking benefit of this. If she can pay, there will be no public checklist. If the record a lawsuit in small claims, it will be public checklist and could make it very no longer undemanding for her to get a role. Walmart won't grant the evidence at her call for. they are going to in basic terms grant it in courtroom, and at that factor it will be too overdue.

It depends on what you have planned for your future. Getting into a law school will be all but impossible. As will getting jobs in retail or banking. You may get lucky and have it expunged so that you won't have as many problems in the future.

I doubt it will "ruin" your future, but it is going to make it harder to get a job, at least right away. The older the charge is, the more likely the employer will overlook it.

Don't do it again. In AZ it becomes a felony on your third one. Face what ever they you and let time past by. Years from now if an employer askes you tell them you screwed up but that was back then and not as mature.

That's why you don't shoplift. Not only is it a crime but now you cant get a job that involves money.

It certainly doesn't look good, but I doubt it will ruin your life provided you learn from it and stay out of trouble.
