Burglary, Robbery and Other Theft Crimes in Orange County
There are many different types of theft crimes. For example, burglary is committed when you unlawfully enter a residence or business with the intent to steal something. Robbery is committed when you use force or fear to unlawfully remove property belonging to another person with the intent of stealing it. Grand theft and petty theft are charges that can be brought against you depending upon the amount of money or value of the objects or items that you allegedly stole.
Because there are so many different types of theft charges, it is very important that your attorney understands what you are up against and what consequences you might face. As an example, robbery is a violent crime and is considered a strike under California’s “three strike” law. If you are wrongfully charged with robbery and you are convicted, you could spend an extensive period of time in prison and you will always have that felony and strike on your record. If you have a previous criminal record and you are facing a robbery charge, you could easily face more jail time and harsher penalties than are necessary.
