Penalties for Shoplifting in Elizabeth, New Jersey

A New Jersey shoplifting charge and conviction is not always a “slap on the wrist.” The penalties increase in severity depending on the value of merchandise and the degree of the charge. For example:

While a first offender will rarely face a jail sentence for a shoplifting charge, New Jersey statutes require a mandatory jail sentence for a person convicted of a third shoplifting offense.   Additionally, a charge may be elevated to a robbery charge, when the charges involve violence, which could even mean pushing a security guard on the way out f the store. Still, even if your case is resolved with little or no jail sentence, a conviction can wreak havoc on your criminal history, especially in the eyes of a potential employer or landlord.  Having a defense lawyer is one of the best ways to understand what you are facing on a shoplifting charge and your possible defenses. Whether you appear in Elizabeth Municipal Court or Union County Superior Court (also in Elizabeth), our attorneys will mount a vigorous defense against shoplifting charges.
