Call Me: 248-924-9458Michigan Larceny & Theft CrimesIf you've been charged with a Michigan larceny crime for the very first time, this doesn't make you a criminal or a bad person. I see clients on a daily basis who have have never been involved in a fight, and have never hurt a person in their life. It's quite common that a good person will get themselves in a bad situation, which results in being charged with a Michigan assault crime. Here are the most common crimes for first offenders:
The first theft crime is Michigan Larceny by Conversion, which the prosecution must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that: - the property of another was delivered to the defendant - the defendant converted the property to his own use - at the time of conversion, the defendant intended to defraud or cheat the owner permanently - the conversion was without owner's consent The second theft crime is Michigan Larceny from an Automobile, which the prosecution must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that - the defendant took something from the car - the property was taken without consent - the property was in or on the car - there was some movement of the property (doesn't matter if defendant kept property) - at the time of property taken, defendant intended to permanently deprive owner. The third theft crime is Michigan Larceny from a Person, which the prosecution must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that - the defendant took the property of another - the property was taken without consent - there was movement of the property - at the time of taking, it was taken from person's immediate control or presence - intention was to permanently deprive owner of property The fourth theft crime is Michigan Larceny from a Building, which the prosecution must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that - the defendant took someone else's property - the property was taken without consent - the property was taken from a building - there was some movement of the property (doesn't matter if defendant kept or left with it) - the property was worth something at the time it was taken - the defendant intended to permanently deprive owner of the property Some other theft offenses include: Michigan Larceny by Trick, which involves the defendant having some limited, special or temporary purpose for possession property, but owner never intended in handing over full-time ownership. During temporary ownership, the defendant does something that defendant knew was not party of agreement and takes property without consent. Receiving and Concealing Stolen Property, which states a person shall not buy, receive, possess, conceal, or aid in the concealment of stolen, embezzled, or converted money, goods, or property knowing, or having reason to know or reason to believe, that the money, goods, or property is stolen, embezzled, or converted. Depending upon the value of the goods, the crime could be a misdemeanor of a felony. |
