Question: If I forge a parents signature, does that parent have any legal recourse or what could happen to me?
Answer: Forgery is a serious crime. Even if you present the forged item to someone and that person looks at it and can tell it is forged and won't accept it, you are still responsible for the crime. This is a felony. The judge may give probation for a first time offense, but when you have a felony there is always the chance you can get jail time.

I have a question. My mom was sick and I wanted to upgrade my cell phone, which is in her name, so I went in and upgraded the phone, but I had to sign her name. What can happen?

I have a question. I just got back my report card and I got a bad grade in one class. I don't know if I should forge it or not. I have never done this before and my parents get very, very mad if I get anything lower than an A. PLEASE HELP!!
