Facing larceny charges can be challenging, but Pattis & Paz LLC is here to help. We provide strong defense strategies aimed at protecting your rights and securing favorable results.
Larceny is a type of theft crime in which someone unlawfully takes or withholds property belonging to another person with the intent to permanently deprive them of its use. The penalties for larceny can be either a
felony or
misdemeanor charge, depending on the value of the property stolen. In order to be convicted of larceny, an individual must have had the intent to steal at the time that they took the property. If an individual takes property without the intention of keeping it, that would not be considered larceny.
There are many types of larceny charges, each with their own possible penalties if convicted. Charges range from larceny in the first degree, which is the most serious, to the sixth degree. The classifications are as follows:
Larceny in the First Degree: Items valued at over $10,000 - Class B Felony, punishable by up to 20 years of incarceration
Larceny in the Second Degree: Items valued at over $5,000 - Class C Felony
Larceny in the Third Degree: Items valued at over $1,000 - Class D Felony
Larceny in the Fourth Degree: Items valued at over $500 - Class A Misdemeanor
Larceny in the Fifth Degree: Items valued at over $250 - Class B Misdemeanor
Larceny in the Sixth Degree: Items valued at $250 or less - Class C Misdemeanor
There are a number of defenses that can be used in larceny cases, depending on the specific facts and circumstances of the case. One common defense is that the accused did not have the intent to steal at the time that they took the property.
Another possible defense is that the property was never actually stolen. This may be the case if the property was returned before any charges were filed or if the accused can prove that they had a right to take the property in the first place. An accused person may also be able to argue that they did not have the intent to deprive the owner of the property permanently. This can be tricky to prove, but if successful, it can result in a reduction of charges from
felony to
misdemeanor. These are, of course, only a few possible arguments that can be utilized when facing larceny charges.
