    Default Do You Have to Disclose Shoplifting If You Weren't Charged

    I made the unfortunate mistake of shoplifting was caught, no cops were called and I never had to go to court for anything. I paid the civil demand fee, this happened 2 years ago and the statue of limitations has run out on the incident. I am applying to graduate schools, and all applications ask if I have ever been charged criminally or if there are any criminal records (including ones that have been erased), so I am just doublechecking, I would be able to write "no" right? Since there were no criminal charges against, and the entire incident was settled by me paying the civil demand?

    ty for any help.

    As far as they know, nothing ever happened so you can answer "no you have not been convicted of a crime"
