Answer 1

Talk to your mom about dropping the charges. It seems that you have a history of misbehaving and your mom signed the papers, probably, out of desperation, not that I know that i'm just speculating. sit down and have a long talk with your mother. Actually beg her to drop the charges, if that's possible. Good luck and please be good.

Answer 2

You might just have to repay the money,

get a fine,

& possibly probation.

I doubt if you'll get any jail time.

Answer 3

Not sure of the length of time, but in VA it is a felony. Depending on the Judge is how much time you would get, if any, in jail.
