THEFT CRIMES

Frank Fernandez is a Massachusetts Thefts Crime Defense Lawyer

In Massachusetts, the degree of a theft crime depends on the value of the items taken as well as whether the defendant has any prior record for stealing. Stolen goods with a value greater that $250 makes a larceny a felony.

Types of theft crimes are:

  • Shoplifting
  • Petty larceny (under $250)
  • Grand larceny (over $250)
  • Larceny by false pretense
  • Larceny by scheme
  • Being a common and notorious thief
  • Conversion (when one person converts another person's property to his or her own use — another legal term for stealing)
  • Larceny by check
  • Uttering (an attempt to cash a check or otherwise place it in circulation, and in so doing to implying that the check and the endorsement are both genuine)
  • Check forgery
  • Embezzlement
  • Receiving stolen property
  • Auto theft or Larceny of a Motor Vehicle
  • Receiving stolen vehicles

    Theft crimes could obviously lead to a jail sentence but also may have an affect on your ability to find work. Employers often perform background checks and can use a conviction for theft as a reason to deny a job applicant a position.
