Penalties for Theft Crimes in Arkansas: What You Need to Know

Each state has its way of categorizing theft offenses, which helps determine the penalties for convictions. In Arkansas, the classification system is usually based on the value of the property or services taken.

The classes and penalties for theft include:

• Class A misdemeanor theft – up to 1 year in prison and a maximum $2,500 fine
• Class D felony theft – up to 6 years in prison and a maximum fine of $10,000
• Class C felony theft – 3 to 10 years in prison and a maximum fine of $10,000
• Class B felony theft – 5 to 20 years in prison and a maximum fine of $15,000

In some cases, the classification and punishment of theft are determined by more than the value of the stolen goods. Other factors considered include the type of goods that were taken or if the offense involved a serious threat.
