I need help... please.

Yesterday I was caught shoplifting. It was so stupid, I don't even know why I did it.

I am 15 years old.
This is my first offense.
I live in Michigan.
I stole (don't yell at me) $309 worth of merchandise from Meijer's.

Everything since then has just been a blur... I'm being taken to court sometime, and I don't know what it'll be like.
I need help. What is going to happen? How much are court fees, usually?


Please don't take this as a chance to tell me what i did was wrong, that I'm stupid, ask me what I was thinking, or anything of the sort. I'm upset... Don't make it any worse!

I know I won't go to jail...
Does anyone know what court is like for juviniles? We had a "court day" in school where the judge and the defendants came to our school to show us what it was like... they basically just lined up and each session was about 5 minutes. Is that what it'll be like for me? there were kids around my age up there...

And to everyone with a serious reply, thank you. I feel better already, but I still feel awful.

Are there any questions the judge will ask that I should prepare for?[/quote]
Well, from what I remember from an episode of The Simpsons, the kids there pee in cups and throw them at you.

Seriously though, I have no idea what juvy is like. But I doubt they'd send you to juvy; just some fines and/or community service or something like that.

So are you black or white... :glare:
