My question involves criminal law for the state of:Wisconsin
I am a 30 yr old who was caught shoplifiting at a local grocery store in Grand Chute County. Grand Chute Police Department was contacted and they issued me and my wife a Grand Chute Municipal Citation. The citation was issued at the store. the ticket states the violation as "Retail theft 1st" on my wife's citation and on mine "Party to retail Theft". They issued me ticket for $177 and informed me that I cannot go to that store again for 1 year.
My question is what exactly will be on my and my wife's record ? I am a foreign worker working in this country on H1b visa. Does it affect my future green card / visa processing ?
When I apply for a job and when they do my background check, what exactly they will see and will it affect my hiring ?
Should I consult any lawyer in this case ? Your help would be really appreciated in this matter. Thanks a million in advance.
