Similar to grand or petty theft, embezzlement is essentially a crime of theft from a person who trusted their property with another (Penal Code Section 503, read in conjunction with the “theft” Penal Code Sections). This crime can be charged as a felony or misdemeanor, similar to the theft statutes. Typical embezzlement involves employers being the victims and employees who are the defendants.
