The Difference Between Robbery and Theft Charges
Understanding the charges you're facing can be difficult. Choosing an experienced attorney to represent you is key when facing robbery or theft charges. Fortunately, The Ford Law Firm has over 25 years of experience defending those facing robbery and theft. To better understand the difference, continue reading:
Robbery
Under Georgia law and federal law, robbery and armed robbery are felonies. Robbery occurs when property is taken through threats, coercion, or violence. If a weapon is used in a robbery, the individual is charged with armed robbery.
Robbery is a broad term that applies to a wide range of situations from misdemeanor shoplifting charge to serious felony charges.
Theft
The charge of theft is different than robbery in that there is no threat of violence or intimidation.
Theft occurs when a person takes property, keeps property that the owner wants returned, sells stolen property or changes price tags on merchandise in a store.
The value of the stolen property determines whether the individual is charged with a misdemeanor or felony under Georgia law. In some cases, an individual is charged with theft and another felony.
