Taking the tiles without paying for them by using a false receipt is a theft. Whether it is a petty theft (misdemeanor) or grand theft (felony) would depend upon the local statutes. However, since he entered the store with the intent of committing that theft, he is also guilty of burglary, which is a felony everywhere. |

Probably larceny/theft depending on jurisdiction and worth of tiles |

Misdemeanor theft, possibly shoplifting. |

" THEFT BY DECEPTION ", " FRAUD ", and because it's over
$50.00, in most States, the charge would be a felony punishable
by up to 2 to 5 yrs. . And if it was caught on tape, you can add
Melicious Intent to Deprive. And we can thank HIM for the added
and/or Increased cost due to the cost of prosecuteing a THIEF.
GODBLESS!!
P/S; what's the Court date? |

Larceny of some sort. The exact name of the charge varies with the jurisdiction. |

THEFT!
doesn't sound like a good 'friend' characterwise.
Watch him. If he would do that to a store imagine what he will do to YOU when your back is turned. |

Depends on what state you're in. In Kentucky, it would be Theft by Deception and since the value is under $300, it would be a Class A Misdemeanor punishable by not more than 1 year in jail and not more than a $1,000 fine. |

fraud or maybe deception (obtaining goods) is more likely. |

Fraud and shoplifting. Theft by deception is the more correct term |

Theft, obtaining goods through deception, plus any charges the credit card companies might want to throw at him. Stupid exercise all round. I hope the CCTV gets him first. |

Bad taste have you seen the tiles at B&Q? |

If the amount received was $100, the charge would be misdemeanor theft (2nd degree). |

this made me laugh thanx. Answer: the old people who work in b&Q don't even know their own name half of the time, so don;t worry about it. |

He would be charged with theft, although he could also be charged with fraud, or several other misdemeanour offences. |
