Can You Be Taken to Court for Stealing if You Aren't Arrested at the Time
My question involves criminal law for the state of: Nevada
Hello! I am 20 and in Nevada with a clean record. Almost 3 weeks ago, I was accused of attempting to shoplift < $100 worth of merchandise. I was stopped by loss prevention who did not call the cops because of my cooperation. When I was in the office, I signed a summons program form that had the city police department name and logo saying I should receive a court date in around 30 days. I paid my civil demand to the store after consulting with a lawyer. I did some research and found out that the court has no information about me to this date. My friend was arrested for underage intoxication about a week after I was caught and he already has information on file with the court. Is there a possibility I will not receive a summons since there is no information yet about me in the court, especially when my friend did something more recently?

Since you paid the stores civil demand timely, there is a decent chance they will drop it there.
