About Michigan Auto Theft Charges
Auto theft, often referred to as grand theft auto, occurs when an individual takes another’s car without the owner’s permission and with the intention of permanently depriving the owner of its use. Auto theft may also be associated with carjacking, a violent crime that involves taking someone else’s car by threats or force. Depending upon the particular case, whether the owner of the car was present, whether a weapon was used, and the value of the car, a defendant may face serious criminal penalties.
Discussing your case with a competent criminal defense attorney is important if you would like to learn more about your options and your legal rights.
