If you have a history or prior criminal record of retail theft or any other criminal offense that is related to theft, such as robbery, burglary, or home invasion, then automatically upon your arrest, you could be charged with a Class 4 felony retail theft offense.

Even as a first time retail theft offender, if the items you stole were over $300, you are looking at a felony retail theft offense. Generally, the court will make a decision on the value of goods you stole and how much they are worth. If you are caught leaving a retail store through an emergency exit with stolen merchandise in your purse, handbag, or backpack, you can also be charged with a Class 4 felony retail theft offense, even though it may be your first retail theft offense.

Regardless of the situation or circumstances surrounding the charges, felony retail theft charges could mean spending 1-3 years in prison and having to pay $25,000 in fines. It’s worth fighting.
