Theft is a crime against another person or entity’s property. When you are faced with theft charges in California, the prosecutors will try to find a way whereby the charges can be categorized as grand theft as a felony which includes bigger penalties.

However, proving a theft charge as a felony has certain conditions that the prosecutors will need to fulfil before you can be sentenced to any penalties. This primarily includes the condition of intent – that is, the prosecutors will need to prove beyond reasonable doubt that you, as the defendant, had the intent to unlawfully take property that belonged to someone else, the victim. If you hire a good criminal defense attorney for theft defense in California, they will try their best to ensure the prosecutors do not convict you of a theft charge.
