A man in his late thirties and no prior criminal record was caught attempting to shoplift a vacuum cleaner from Home Depot. With San Diego shoplifting lawyer Jessica McElfresh, she persuaded the court to resolve the matter based on her client completing 30 hours of volunteer work and attending a shoplifting prevention class. If he does this and stays out of trouble for six months, the case will be completely dismissed.
The outcome of an individual case depends on a variety of factors unique to that case. Case results do not guarantee or predict a similar result in any similar or future case.
