What is Larceny in Florida?

Many theft crimes may also be referred to as "Larceny," a legal term referring to the criminal offense of taking another's property with the intention of temporarily or permanently depriving them of its use, without the victim's knowledge and/or consent.

入店行窃 Is a Form of Larceny, as Are Violent Theft Crimes Such As:

• Burglary
• Carjacking
• Robbery

Larceny may be classified as grand larceny or petit larceny, depending on the value and type of property taken.

Penalties for Theft Crimes

The nature of the offense, whether a weapon was involved, the defendant's prior criminal record, whether anyone was injured, and the value of property involved will all affect the potential penalties that a defendant may face for a theft crime conviction in Miami, Florida. 

The penalties an individual will face for a theft charge will depend upon whether or not the offense was violent in nature and other factors.  For example, robbery and burglary are committed through the use of force or violence, and therefore these charges carry more severe penalties.

Although the specific penalties for a theft crime conviction may vary, the basic criminal penalties that may be enforced are imprisonment in county jail or state prison, fines, and probation. However, a defendant may also face possible drug or alcohol treatment if his or her offense is related to drug or alcohol abuse.
