My question involves criminal law for the state of: Nevada
Hello! I am 20 and in Nevada with a clean record. Over 3 weeks ago, I was accused of attempting to shoplift < $100 worth of merchandise from a major retailer. 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 saying I should receive a court date in around 30 days. I paid my civil demand to the store after consulting with a lawyer. The court has no information about me to this date. I have been checking online and a while ago, a law firm I visited called the court to see if they had any reports on me and they did not. My friend was arrested for a minor in consumption charge 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? Could they have decided not to prosecute? I know our charges are different, but wouldn't the clerk get to my case before his, since his happened more recently than mine?
