Kansas | Juvenile Dependency
Legal Question
I have a girl who came to me in confidence and told me that she has been caught stealing 2 times. The first was a lip balm and tweezers, she got communtiy service. The 2nd time she was caught with stolen pajamas. She is 15years of age. I asked her if she received any punishemnt the second time. She said no but she received a letter saying she needs to get an attorney. Can you please advise as to what the next step is. Thanks
Legal Answer
She and her parent(s) shoudl consult directly with an attorney soon. It is impossible to predict what will happen with a case, with so few details. She need sto get informed advice before she negatively affects her future.
Good luck
