Legal Question in Criminal Law in New York

This is actually more of a civil suit question than criminal. However, two things might be possible. The police will return your phone when the trial is finished and yes, that could be quite a while. You could talk with a civil attorney because the bakery does possibly share some liability in this situation. OR you could talk to the bakery and tell them that the easiest thing would be to pay for your phone. I hope this helps.
