Misdemeanor Vs. Felony Theft Convictions
Depending on the value of the item that was allegedly stolen, a theft crime is charged as either a misdemeanor or a felony. We recommend that, even if you are being charged with a lesser crime, you still take your case as equally serious. Consequences for a misdemeanor can be just as inconvenient as a felony conviction, and have a weighty impact on your future.
Theft crimes that are generally charged as a misdemeanor are considered “petty thefts” and can include circumstances of:
- Shoplifting
- Receiving stolen property
- Robbery
- Any theft valued at under $950
If this is a repeat offense, you may be charged with a felony, even if the property is worth less than $950.
Felony theft crimes can include:
- Armed robbery
- Grand theft auto
- Embezzlement
- Receiving stolen property valued at over $950
- Identity theft
- Mail theft
