When Does Theft Become An Indictable Offense?
Theft crimes involving property valued up to $200 are disorderly persons crimes, which means that the state does not need to convene a grand jury to determine whether there is sufficient evidence to prosecute. However, theft crimes involving property worth more than $200 count as indictable offenses – these tend to result in very serious penalties. Indictable offenses often involve aggravating factors such as the presence of a weapon. To minimize the impact on your life, we do everything in our power to reduce the charges against you – often, we can even get them dismissed.
