    Unhappy Charged With Shoplifting in an Apple Store

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: New York City

    So I was in the Apple Store on 5th ave in Manhattan, NYC (I live in NYC) I was in there with a friend and he wanted the iPhone 7 battery case, which is $99 He walked away because he realized that a security guard was following us. I had the item in my hand and I asked an employee for a bag, and then I put the item in the bag. I then walked towards the exit, but did leave, I was just right next to the doors

    The security walked me to the back and called the police and I was arrested. I am 16 years old, and turning 17 in a couple of weeks This was my first offence I was offered something called Project Reset, which is something new in NYC where if it is your first offence for a small crime, you can go to a court where they will give you community service or counseling in exchange for your record to be sealed and the charge will "not effect you"

    I don't know if I need a lawyer, and the police didnt tell me anything about a lawyer I have no idea what to do The court date is in August so I think i have time to get everything together Please help Thanks
