RS/THEFT PROP [CT I]-SJF Theft of Property

Accused of unlawfully taking or exercising control over someone else’s property without consent.
In Texas, theft severity can depend on the value of the property and other factors (for example: prior convictions or special categories of property).
If the source provides a dollar range (like “$2,500 to $30,000”), that range is typically what drives the offense level in the record.
