While visiting the state of Illinois for vacation at the beginning of the year, I was arrested for retail theft (class A misdemeanor, 720 ILCS 5/16A-13). I am back in my home country now and I am not a citizen of Illinois or the United States, but I am planning to visit the states again sometime in the future.

Because of my current location I will not be able to attend court or proceed to negociate any of the civil demands or charges. I am aware that ignoring these charges and fines will result in a warrant, but technically if I do not make any troubles during any future trips to the states, would it even matter? Also, is there anything I could do to resolve this issue from overseas? Thank you.

Does the US recognize a name change in a foreign country?

If a permanent resident of the US go back to his home country and legally change his full name (without an US court order), does the US recognize such name change?

What if the name change is not made by the foreign court, but a government department of the foreign country (It is legally recognized in that foreign country.)? Would a passport of the foreign country with the new full name be enough to prove the name change?

Would Jordan, Middle East, enforce a 3 year old returning stateside per a parental agreement?- Ex wants me to sign for our 3 year old to go to Jordan, any assurance he will have to return with her?

Is it one of those things where, if I have thousands of dollars for a lawyer the answer is yes, if I don't then the answer is probably not?
