    Default What is the Punishment for Criminal Trespass by a Minor

    My question involves criminal law for the state of Illinois.
    My son and daughter were at the mall with a friend and my son and the friend started to wrestle around and were told to leave by mall security (not stating they were banned indefinitely) . About a week later my son and daughter went back to the mall and the police were call and they were arrested while walking out , they both got tickets for criminal trespassing but they are minors and neither of them have any kind of record , what is the maximum punishment do you think they might be givin ?

    Why was the daughter arrested? Was the daughter initially kicked out of the mall with the son and the friend?

    Seems like you didn't get the entire story from your kids. You might want to consult with an attorney. Many give free consultations. I would at least talk to one and see what advice they give.

    This law firm link seems to summarize it all: https://www.chicagocriminallawyer.pr...s-to-land.html

    You really need to talk to an attorney and you need to talk to your kids again and find out what actually happened. I find it very odd that they would get arrested if they were not banned from the mall.
