I live in Millersville, Maryland and the event took place at GameStop in Hanover, Maryland. I was caught adding extra money to gift cards while doing a return for a friend. I know that i will have a court date but i do not know anything about law. What should i have prepared? Should i be expecting jail time? It was for under $250 over a 6 month period. The cop that handled my report said that it is all up to the judge but as a cop, he could not give any advice. Should i represent myself? I will be pleading guilty but what’s the best way to go about this?

Now, he has begun contacting me saying that the items I sold him were not new as I described and wants a refund. I told him that 8 months is too late to request a refund, and there is no way the items were not new. Basically, I told him I thought he had a case of buyer’s remorse, and that is not my fault. So, he says he is going to file a mail fraud complaint against me. What does this mean? Will it hurt my credit, show up on a background check, what happens when someone files a mail fraud complaint?

her injury impacted her life and career.
Would there be anyway for her to sue the
