Now You May Wonder…

…What If I Didn’t Intend to Keep the Car?

If you “borrowed” a car without permission and took it for a ride, but did not actually intend to steal it–or if the prosecution cannot prove any intent to steal–you cannot be convicted of grand theft auto. However, you can be convicted of joyriding. If you are a first time offender, joyriding will most likely be charged with a misdemeanor, exposing you to lesser penalties. Even if you are charged with felony joyriding, a conviction for this offense is not viewed as prejudicially as a grand theft auto conviction. As your grand theft auto attorney in West Covina CA, Dan E. Chambers will carefully analyze the prosecution’s evidence regarding your intent at the time of the alleged crime to see if you can benefit from the reduced charge of joyriding.
