Embezzlement arises when a person in a position of trust such as an employee or volunteer takes money or property belonging to someone else (Penal Code section 503). These are the elements of the crime of embezzlement.
Effective defenses include the following.
- Insufficiency of the evidence
- Lack of proper book keeping
- No proof of actual loss
- The alleged victim is not credible
- Violation of the right to remain silent
- Incomplete police investigation
- A third party committed the crime
Successful resolution of the case depends on presenting critical information to the prosecution and judge about the strengths of the defense. A request to the prosecutor either before the first court date or afterwards to dismiss or reduce the charges based on new evidence is effective. Diversion is a strategic process in which a client agrees to follow certain instructions from the judge like counseling or community service that upon completion results in dismissal of the case. The plea bargain is a beneficial agreement between the defense, prosecution and judge to dismiss or lower the charges, reduce the fines and penalties, and avoid time in custody.
