    How to Tell if a Shoplifting Case Has Been Closed
    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Arizona

    My bf was caught at Walmart shop lifting it was about $50 of food & shoes. The dumb ass ran from the store security but the cops did find him. He didn't run from them thank goodness. He's 38.

    This is his first charge in Arizona ever. He was nailed with a mistermeanor 1. He went to court pled guilty to the mistermeanor 1 charge. (obviously he's not going to fight it he ran from store security)

    The judge that seen him the first time didnt give him a court date. It states on the court papers time served. But it states a court date on his paper work.

    I went online checked the phx public records & it shows this. PLEA GUILTY/RESP SENT IMPOSED. Does this mean they closed the case? Or does that mean he just pled guilty & he still has gotta go to court on the 26th of Feb. It states on his paper work he dont have any restitution or fines to pay.

    Please help.

    If your bf didn't have a lawyer, that was the really stupid part. The word is "misdemeanor" by the way. If he has a court date scheduled, he needs to appear unless the court tells him specifically he does not need to.

    My plan is for him to call the courts on Monday to double check he's gotta go.

    He did have a lawyer. They just didn't tell him he had a court date or he's lying to me. Their is a court date on the paperwork.
