: accused of larceny

You should go to court and remove the default and litigate this matter.

When Immigration checks your status, this will come up.

If you need help, contact me.

Re: accused of larceny

Call the court and ask them to look up your file by the number on top of the papers that you received, or by your name. They will tell you if there is a default warrant. Ask them when is the best time to come to court and remove the default. It is advisable to consult an attorney first. If you cannot afford an attorney, the court will appoint an attorney to represent you "free of charge" (there's still a small fee in most cases). Most likely, if this woman got her money back or she no longer wishes maintain her accusations, the case will be dismissed. Feel free to email or call my office with questions.
