This is what is referred to as an embezzled vehicle. It is a similar charge to vehicle theft. However, the DA's office can pursue theft charges depending on the circumstances.

Contact the County Attorney's Office, find out what evidence they have against him, are their photo's of any injuries that this woman says she got from him, or is their only evidence a written statement from her?\n\nDoes your boyfriend have a person who can dispute her story, or him not even near her during this time she reports the crime happened.\n\nCheck to see if he has any receipts which will show he was some where else at the time she reports being assaulted.\n1.Gas Rec.\n2.Shopping Rec.\n3.Grocery.\n4.Any type of purchase on credit cards.\n5.High Way tole receipt.\n\nYou must be able to break her story some how. Place and time of the event. His where abouts at that time.\nDoes he have any marks on him? Scratches on himself?\n\nIf he's released and the charges are dropped, make sure that the DA's office files charges on her for False Report to a Police Officer/Agency.\nThen you can file a civil suit against her for triple damages. Which is Defamation of character, Pain and suffering, Cost of incarceration, Bond posting-loss, Loss of work while in Jail.\n\nGood Luck.

Start with your county's District Attorney's Office. They often investigate claims against local officials. Some have a Public Integrity Unit. Good luck!

places that are as bad as them. once your purse was stolen, you have to contact your bank right away. as you will be able to show you wern't the one who wrote a check, its still going to take longer. the bank will give you a differant account right away once you contact them and your funds are transfered over. to get your money back from the check if your bank after notification allowed it to pass. they are liable to you for that amount. if its before you told the bank, you will have to contact the state attorneys office in your state and where the check was written to find the person to get the money back. some banks like credit card companies allow the first 50.00 and after that your account is covered.

You go to your local police department and file a police report.  They will take your statement, and if there is enough evidence, then the person may be arrested, and subsequently, convicted.

Unless he can show that your husband should have known the person would steal the paperwork(that'd be tough to prove), took the paperwork or misplaced the paperwork there's nothing that can be done.  Since he contacted the police there's a report to back him up.  Also in order to sue he'd have to show how he lost money because of the missing paperwork.  If all that happened was he got a slap on the hand from someone there's nothing for him to collect on.  \n\nNow my question is what were the "items" you found in the closet?  Was this the paperwork?  Was it items of value?

Call the employer and try to clear the issue up by confessing. \nHonesty really is the best policy, really!  I have been in exactly the same spot and being honest and up-front got me thru and I got the job(s).  If I didn't get the job being honest or not would not have mattered cause the emplyers rules were THE rules. Any crime recorded on the national data base called the NCIC which includes misdemenor of felony will be there forever, unless expundged and even then I would run a record check on myself. also there are FBI fingerprint records which  if checked  can have the reason for being finger printed-like arrest.  I have been fingerprinted many time for security checks involved with my work.  The difference F vs M in your friends case was due to the states statues on how much money was involved, not how much was lost, assuming she made restitution.  A suggestion would be to consult with an attorney in the state of residence to see how that states' system works.

That would be a verbal contract. If you have any receipts for you expenses or labor that would prove you did work for the guy, you can take him to small claims court. A witness or two with no personal interest in your side of the case would be nice to. You could chance bringing it to small claims court and just hope he is honest enough to own up to it. But chances are slim on that. If you have any phone messages from him acknowledging any thing to do with the work, that would help a lot.

Petty Theft (under $400) - Misdemeanor\n\nGrand Theft (over $400) - Felony\n\nBurglary (entering a structure with the intent to commit a theft) - Felony\n\nEmbezzlement (stealing from a place where you are employed) - Felony\n\nHowever, the gravity of the charge will ultimately be determined by the District Attorney.  They can lower a Felony to a Misdemeanor if they choose.  If the charge is currently a Felony, ask your attorney if you make a plea of guilty will the District Attorney lower the crime to a Misdemeanor in exchange for the plea. It is a very common exchange.

Although you have heard some information about how the case was handled, it seems a bit unlikely that a worker would risk their job considering that paternity is easily proven or disproven with DNA testing.  What is their motive?\n\nIt seems like your best chance would be to file suit against the woman who made the false statements and not the agency/state. You might want to consider small claims court; however, it is unlikely you would ever collect even if you win without incurring additional expense and aggravation.  \n\nIf you have good, hard evidence against the worker, write a letter to the agency head with the details and any proof.  However if you are just out to get even, you might want let it pass.  It was a very unfortunate incident, but it is over, and pursuing revenge will not bring you any peace.  Put it behind you and move forward with your life.   Living well is the best revenge.

Names and types of charges depend on the state,\nThe charge you named was not even a charge in states I have worked,  there would be resisting arrest and failure to follow the instructions of a officer.  Those would be the only two choices.\n\nSo you need to specify more what state.

contact the postal inspector as they handle fraud and other things. the u.s. attorney could get involved on the case. there are statute of limitations on fraud but its based on knowledge of and starts from the time you know about the crime. as you state family stole it and and you had knowledge of it thirty years ago and are just now for some reson wanting to turn them in makes you a accessory for knowing everything and not reporting it right away. it could be you had a falling out and want to spill the beans now. first thing is contact a criminal defense attorney as the consult is free. then from that point they can defend you if they think you will get in trouble for knowing, but never saying, especially if you saw this happen. its a federal offense which is bigger trouble.

that actually happened to my younger sister when she was 15 and this security guard at sears told her she had stolen clothes which wasnt true and my sister refused to go with him and he grabbed her and took her to the back and didnt let my mom in with her and quetioned her. and of course she didnt take anything and i have no idea what made him think that cause we walked out with no bags and we werent even wearing jackets or anything. but long story short we sued and won some money and he was suspended from his job for awhile. Now what would i do if i was accused: well my sisters lawyer said if we would have let him take her down and handcuff her we would have won alot more money. so if i was innocent and there was no reason him for that accusation then... i think you know where im goin with this.

There are legal ramifications if they get caught, because he falsified documents.  What the course of action would be, depends on your state laws I am sure and what the apt. management want to do about it.\n\nI would say at the very least the friend will get evicted, loose his security deposit and may have to pay an additional fee.  If they choose to go after your boyfriend, I am not sure what they can do legally.

The employer would have a case for firing the person for cause for making the unauthorized charge. That person could also be disqualified from receiving unemployment benefits because their termination would be for misconduct. Also, the person could also be open to criminal charges if they did not make immediate restitution.
