An
act of robbery, similar to theft, occurs when an individual
knowingly and
intentionally obtains or exerts unauthorized control over the
property of another, but does so with the use of force or threats.
In order to be charged
as a robbery, during the course of the theft of property or
assets, those involved in the alleged theft use force to
overcome resistance, or the threat of force to compel compliance during the taking of or
escaping with the property.
Robbery is a
criminal offense which is aggressively prosecuted, and when a gun is
involved is subject to Florida's 10, 20, life statute (775.087)
which stipulates:
-
If convicted for
pulling a gun during a crime: Mandatory minimum 10 years in prison;
-
If convicted for
firing a gun during a crime: Mandatory minimum 20 years in prison;
-
If convicted of
injuring or killing a victim by firing the gun during a crime:
Mandatory minimum 25 years to life in prison is authorized;

To be more specific regarding criminal robbery

-
A Robbery charge may involve a threat of imminent harm
or the use of others to intimidate, control, or influence the victim
to comply in the act of a theft.
-
Armed Robbery is when any object which may be used as
a deadly weapon is used or threatened to be used in the act of a
theft, which is a 1st degree felony in the State of Florida.

Strong-Arm Robbery, a situation where the offender
used any degree of force to complete the act of theft such as a
