White Collar Crime Laws in Idaho

There is no single law against white collar crime. This term is actually a generic descriptor that covers an entire range of possible offenses. Typically, an offense in this category involves some sort of intentional malfeasance that has to do with a business, corporation, investment, or similar entity or thing.

Examples of white collar crimes include:

According to the Idaho Legislature's site, most of these crimes fall under the legal category of theft since they involve illegally appropriating money or property from another person or a legal entity such as a company.

Penalties for White Collar Crime Convictions in Idaho

Since most white collar crime constitutes some type of theft according to Idaho law, we will present that state's penalties for theft. If the amount in question is under $1,000, the crime qualifies as petit theft. Penalties for this, are a fine of up to $1,000 and up to a year in the county jail.

When is White Collar Crime a Felony in Idaho?

The cutoff value for theft to become the felony known as grand theft is only $1,000. Most white-collar crimes involve amounts higher than this. This means that if you're convicted, you'll most likely become a felon.

Penalties for grand theft in Idaho can be quite severe. Fines go up to $10,000, and you can spend up to 20 years in a state prison. You can be both fined and imprisoned for the same crime. You must spend a minimum of 1 year in prison if convicted of grand theft.

Notably, if the amounts in question are under $1,000, but are obtained as part of an overarching scheme (such as a Ponzi scheme), they are added up and charged as grand theft.

There are several other possible penalties for theft in Idaho, with the details of the crime determining the specifics. It is important to talk to a lawyer to learn the exact possibilities for your case.

I don't think I have enough space here to fully detail how much I appreciate these guys! Here are a few highlights from my experience:Anytime I had a question and reached out to Lane, he responded immediately. I always knew what was happening throughout the process and I had the information I needed.The team provided very realistic expectations for the outcome of my case and I never felt like I was being under-represented. I believe they always had my best intentions in mind while working on my case and provided a sense of calm during a very stressful time which was a relief for me and my family.Their level of professionalism was very confidence inspiring and I am grateful that I choose them to represent me!

Tyler handled my case quickly and efficiently. He was the second attorney I hired. The first attorney made me weary. As soon as I spoke with Tyler I felt better. Two weeks later all of my problems were gone and I can’t thank him enough. The weight lifted off my shoulders allowed a breath I hadn’t had in months. Thank you again Tyler, I really, really appreciate you.

I was experiencing some serious charges, my LDA wasn't really helping my case. I reached out at about 4:30 on a Sunday they got back to me within the hour. Lane told me how long the court process would take and always helped keep me calm when my mind would race. He told me the results Mark would get me and Mark did exactly that. If I ever have any legal problems they will definitely be the first ones I call. Id recommend them if you want a lawyer who’s worth the money and service!
