The Crime of Shoplifting in Texas

Shoplifting is a form of theft that falls under the broad category outlined in Texas Penal Code Section 31.03.

Shoplifting includes:

• Removing or swapping their tags so as to get them at a cheaper price
• Acting as a lookout or otherwise helping the shoplifter commit the crime

Shoplifting is punished according to the value of the goods stolen. Charges can range from the lowest misdemeanor punishable and a fine of $500, to the most serious felony charge carrying a prison term of 5 to 99 years and/or a fine of up to $10,000. You may also face civil charges from the property owner. Many large retail stores are known to prosecute shoplifters to the fullest extent of the law which is why it is imperative that you seek experienced and aggressive legal help from Deandra Grant Law.
