This bill died with 2015-2016 Regular Session. It reached “In Committee” and never advanced before the session ended, so it can no longer move — a new version would have to be reintroduced in the current session.

This bill is no longer active — its legislative session has ended, so there is no live prognosis. It would have to be reintroduced in the current session to move again.

Summary

Existing law makes it a crime for any person to violate specified laws proscribing theft, embezzlement, forgery, fraud, or identity theft with respect to the property or identifying information of an elder or dependent adult. Existing law makes a violation of those provisions punishable as a misdemeanor or a felony in county jail, as prescribed, when the moneys, labor, goods, services, or real or personal property taken or obtained is of a value exceeding $950. This bill would instead make a violation of those provisions punishable as a misdemeanor in county jail or as a felony in state prison, as prescribed.
