Robbery Charges

Robbery charges can be confusing because there are several ways to define them in our country. According to the legal definition, everyone commits robbery who:

• Steals while using violence or the threat of violence
• Directly uses violence against the person who they are stealing from

• Uses violence against someone with the intent of stealing from them. This definition of robbery can be applied 
  even if it was unsuccessful

• Steals from a person using a weapon including both offensive (e.g. a firearm) and imitation (e.g. a toy gun) weapons

The legal consequences of robbery depend on several factors, including whether a weapon was used or not. In cases of when a robbery was committed using a firearm, you can even be sentenced to life in prison.
