Types of Theft Charges Under Texas Law

Theft is defined as unlawfully appropriating property with the intent to deprive the owner of it (Texas Penal Code Title 7 Sec. 31.03). The severity of theft charges depends on factors such as the value of the property stolen and the circumstances of the alleged offense:

Consequences of Theft Charges in Texas

As theft charges escalate from misdemeanors to felonies, the potential penalties become increasingly severe, including substantial fines and lengthy imprisonment. Beyond legal consequences, individuals may also be held liable for damages up to $10,000 resulting from the theft. Repeat theft offenses can elevate misdemeanor charges to felonies, amplifying the potential impact on a person’s life and future opportunities.
