What if a person is convicted of theft under $5,000 as an indictable offence?
A person convicted of theft under $5,000 as an indictable offence could be fined and or imprisoned for up to two years. As a matter of procedure, however, the Crown rarely proceeds with such a charge as an indictable offence, particularly if it is a first offence.
