A chapter 51 mental
commitment in WI entitles local mental health authorities to have you arrested
and held for the duration of your commitment, as well as for the commitment's
extension if it is expiring. You really therefore need an experienced mental
commitment lawyer as soon as possible, and the public defenders office is the
most likely place to find one (although many lawyers who have previously
prosecuted these cases for the DA's Office are now in private practice in your
location including yours truly). Covid 19 is a valid sentencing consideration
which does sometimes get people more favorable treatment in order to avoid
unreasonable exposure to infection in many secure facilities and even halfway
houses these days, but these arguments need to be properly presented by the lawyer
at the right time in the proceedings.

Your insurance should pay
for all of this and allow you to recover your car and other items. If none, an
experienced civil lawyer would know how to sue for all of this, so retain one
as soon as you can. Generally speaking, towers requested by law enforcement
have a possessory mechanic's lien, which includes both storage and towers fees,
and can sell the vehicle in order to cover all of this if you didn't first pay
for it.

In order to convict you
if you fight any shoplifting case, they need to prove "concealment"
or other action with intent to deprive the merchant of the merchandise, or at
least of its marked price. If this is a mandatory appearance in circuit court,
you would have the right to a jury trial, where the jury would be ordered to
let you off if the DA couldn't prove all this beyond any reasonable doubt, The
jury's verdict would have to be unanimous. If it is a non-mandatory appearance
case, however, you it would be a bit easier to prove (only to about a 75%
certainty is required). Either way, if you are convicted, you would have a
permanent record which would be available to the public and therefore could be
used against you in everything from employment to immigration. In either event,
you would benefit greatly from retaining a seasoned criminal defense lawyer
early in the process.
