Legal Question in Criminal Law in Illinois

My som was with another boy who stole a music cd, my son didnt have anything on him when stopped. Now chgs were filed, noe was a ploice report. Now kmart lawyers have sent me a restaturion letter demanding I pay a fee within 20 days. The cd cost maybe $20.00, they got it back the boy didnt leave the store . Do i really need to pay $265.00 for my son who didnt have anything and had no record and is 14 yrs old?
