Georgia's Shoplifting Laws
In Georgia, shoplifting is considered a type of theft and is defined as the act of taking merchandise from a store or retail establishment without paying for it. This can include hiding items on your person or in a bag, switching price tags to pay less than the actual price, or intentionally not scanning items at self-checkouts.
Under Georgia law, there are two main categories of shoplifting: misdemeanor and felony. Misdemeanor shoplifting involves stealing goods valued at $500 or less, while felony shoplifting involves goods valued at over $500 or committing multiple offenses within a certain time period.
The penalties for shoplifting in Georgia can include fines, jail time, probation, community service and restitution to the store. Repeat offenses or felony charges can result in more severe consequences.
