I was caught shoplifting in Mervyn's,ca. The item was worth $50. The LP asked me to sign two forms..one declaring that I stole 50$ worth item with my home address and phone details in it and another civil demand notice. cops were not called, nor she said anything about me appearing to court. I have no justification for my act and I deeply regret what I did and I am willing to pay the fine which she said will be mailed to me in a few weeks. LP took my driver license ID details. nothing other than that. I am an adult.
I am scared to death. Do I have to appear to court/will they send me a summon or something to appear to court? will cops be coming to my home in future? I am so scared. I realize I shouldn't have done that. I cooperated well with the LP. will anything reflect in my background check. I HAVE LEARNT A LESSON FOR LIFE.
Thank you ALL for your advice/suggestion in advance.
