Theft

THEFT

Theft is a very broad crime. Many different types of acts can constitute theft under Minnesota law. And the levels of theft range from Petty Misdemeanor to Felony. The main definition of theft and its variations focus on the intentional taking of property from another without consent and with the intent to deprive the owner of possession. Generally, any theft of $1,000 or more is a Felony. Between $501 and $1,000 a Gross Misdemeanor. And $500 and under a Misdemeanor. Some acts constituting theft include:

  • Shoplifting from a retail store
  • False Representation (deceiving someone that you will do something for them to obtain property; or, acting like someone else to obtain property)
  • Issuing a bad check (not forgery)
  • Theft by Swindle – tricking someone to obtain property or services
  • Motor Vehicle Theft
