Going to Court tomorrow

I am terrified, I am due in court tomorrow on seven charges of fraud totalling £10,000 (not benefit fraud).

I handed myself in to the Police Station previously because I felt so awful about it, cooperated ever since but I'm so scared I will go to prison.

If they do send me to prison does anyone think I would be sent there straight away from Court ?

It takes guts to own up to doing something wrong and illegal. You have done the right thing and hopefully you will have a chance to put it right and pay back the money. Good luck for tomorrow.

I just wanted to wish you good luck for tomorrow OP Flowers

Good luck for tomorrow. You’ve done the right thing. It’s been a difficult year.

Please make sure if you have a pet that you put things in place for it to be cared for if you aren’t able to come home after court. You might want to also leave your house keys with a family member.

Hope for the best plan for the worst.
