What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill imposes a mandatory minimum sentence of incarceration for 180 days

for a third conviction for the offense of retail theft that occurs within 10 years of the

previous two convictions. Under current law, depending on the circumstances, retail

theft can be a Class A misdemeanor, punishable by up to 9 months of imprisonment,

or a Class G, H, or I felony, punishable by up to 10 years, 6 years, or 3.5 years of

imprisonment, respectively.

Because this bill creates a new crime or revises a penalty for an existing crime,

the Joint Review Committee on Criminal Penalties may be requested to prepare a

report.
