    Default Re: Shoplifting Charges Dropped - WalMart Now Wants Money for Civil Damages

    I am not interested in my own civil damages towards Wal-Mart, because I understand that they did have enough evidence to arrest.

    I just thought that it was completely unprofessional the way I was treated.

    The prosecutor actually advised Wal-Mart to drop the shoplifting charge two times, but they refused. Eventually, the office refused the case on lack of evidence and the charges were dropped. I just need advice on how to handle the fact that even though criminal charges were dropped, they now want civil damages.

    The Civil Demand is completely outside of court. You could take them to court (Civil court) since case was dropped but they are within their rights to pursue Civil Demand. You admission of guilt doe snot help fighting this. You could file a separate suit for treatment you recieved by LP and/or contact corparate office to resolve this
