FAQ: Colorado Springs Theft Attorney
Under Colorado law, petty theft is when you intentionally steal property that’s worth less than $300. An example of petty theft is stealing an item from a store or failing to return a borrowed item within 72 hours of the promised return time. Petty theft is a petty offense, which is punishable by 10 days in jail and/or $300 in fines.
In Colorado, armed robbery is a type of aggravated robbery. Robbery becomes aggravated when you use a weapon to commit an act of theft. The penalty for aggravated robbery in Colorado is 4-16 years in prison (with five years of mandatory parole) and a maximum fine of up to $750,000.
If you’re innocent but you’re charged with theft, it’s essential that you hire an experienced criminal defense attorney. It’s your word against the prosecutor’s word, so there’s no guarantee that the judge or the jury will believe you. If anything, it’s the prosecutor’s goal to convict you, so you need a criminal defense lawyer on your side to prove your innocence.
