Shoplifting & Theft Offender Program

What is S.T.O.P.?

S.T.O.P is a diversion program for 1st time offenders age 18-25 years old that offer them a chance to learn from their choices and to develop tools to  make better decisions in the future. If the program is successfully completed with no other charges, the case is submitted to the District Attorney for DISMISSAL. Completion in the program results in a voluntary dismissal of the charge and is less than the cost of court.

Who?

Referrals to the program may be referred by: Magistrates, District Attorney, Judges, and Defense Attorneys (pending approval from the District Attorney).

Cost

There is a $100.00 fee for the Young Adult Offender Program: $60.00 (Clerk of Court) for dismissal of charges and $40.00 (Conflict Resolution Center) for the special education class.   Class fee paid online has a $2.50 service charge for online payment.  You may pay in person directly to the center to avoid the fee.
