Hello, I got caught stealing goods worth 16£ and I am also banned from the store for one year. When I was caught the security guys phoned the police straight away and I got arrested and taken to a police station where they took my finger prints and stuff. When I left the police station I didn't give me any fine or anything although I was told I was charged for shoplifting. Taking into account this is my first offence, is it likely to be taken to court for that amount?
Now I have a letter from RLP claiming 50£. I don't know what to do, should I just ignore it as everyone here says? I wouldn't like to be taken to court for such a small amount of money.
Thank you.
