Theft Charges & Penalties in Michigan

Michigan law prosecutes theft crimes harshly. Anyone charged with a theft crime is facing serious consequences, including potentially a criminal conviction which could harm future employment and housing opportunities. People with a theft conviction on their record, besides potential jail time or heavy fines, will also have a harder time getting any job where honesty is vital (like working at a bank).

Theft crimes include the following:

Those facing misdemeanor theft charges could face up to 93 days in jail and a fine of either $500 or three times the value of property stolen. Penalties for a felony vary depending on the value of property stolen. They could carry a sentence of up to 5 years in prison and fines of either $10,000 or three times the value of the stolen property. If a person has prior convictions, they will face harsher penalties.
