Summary

This Act creates a separate offense for theft of a catalytic converter. A first offense of catalytic converter theft is a class A misdemeanor unless the value of the stolen property is $1,500 or more, in which case it is a class G felony. A second offense of theft of a catalytic converter within the previous 5 years is a class G felony, regardless of the value of the stolen property. Where a victim is 62 years of age or older, an adult who is impaired, or a person with a disability, a first offense of theft of a catalytic converter is a class G felony unless the value of the stolen property is $1,500 or more, in which case it is a class F felony. A second offense of theft of a catalytic converter within the previous 5 years is a class F felony, regardless of the value of the property stolen. Where the value is the property is more than $50,000 but less than $100,000, theft of a catalytic converter is a class D felony. Where the value of the property is $100,000 or more, theft of a catalytic converter is a class B felony. This Act increases the reporting requirements for scrap metal processors when they acquire scrap metal including catalytic converters. This Act also makes technical corrections to conform existing law to the standards of the Delaware Legislative Drafting Manual.
