In California, Robbery is defined as taking someone else’s property from their person by force, violence or intimidation. If the Robbery took place in an inhabited dwelling, or car [carjacking] it is considered to be First Degree Robbery and carries severe penalties of up to 10 years in prison. Many times the District Attorney’s Office alleges that the Robbery was committed with the use of a weapon, or done to further the interests of a gang. These are serious sentencing enhancements that add additional exposure in State Prison.
