Could I Be Charged With Selling Stolen Goods if I Didn't Know They Were Stolen? LocalSolicitors.com

Selling stolen goods without knowing they were stolen that have now been seized by police

Good Morning.

I am sorry to hear what has happened. I am not in a position to offer advise as regards to any failing on the part of the police but have you considered the possibility that your daughter via a parent/guardian may well have a civil claim for her injury. This would depend on the circumstances of the incident etc however if you would like to discuss this further you can reach me on 0113 224 7804. Regards Mike Massen, Cohen Cramer Solicitors.

Actions against the police for failing to record a report regarding an assault on my daughter who was a minor when this happened

I am assuming that the fine was imposed by a court and that you weren't given a penalty notice. The requirement to disclose convictions when requested in a job application is regulated by the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. When the only punishment imposed is a fine, the period during which the conviction must be disclosed is 1 year (or 6 months if you were under 18). However, some jobs are exempted from the Act and it should state on the application as to whether this applies to the job you wish to apply for. The type of job usually exempted range from police officer to care worker. For these jobs the potential employer would check your record with the DBS. If the fine was the result of a penalty notice, this does not require an admission of guilt and therefore is not disclosable. The short answer is that unless the job you're applying for is exempted, you don't need to disclose it.

I have been caught shoplifting in 2014 and charged with a fine. Is it considered as a criminal offence that I need to disclose?
