• Burglary
  Grand theft is a type of crime that involves the unlawful taking or use of another person’s property without their permission or knowledge. Depending on the circumstances, grand theft can be considered either a felony or a misdemeanor offense. Some examples of grand theft include stealing a car, burglary, shoplifting, and embezzlement. In some cases, the defense to grand theft may be that the accused did not intend to take the property permanently, or that there was some form of mutual agreement between the parties involved in which permission was granted for the taking of property. It is important to note that even if there are extenuating circumstances surrounding the theft, it still may be considered a criminal offense and thus punishable by law.
