Vandalism Laws

Vandalism is the act of defacing or destroying property that belongs to another individual. To establish guilt in a vandalism case, the prosecution must prove that you caused physical damage to property owned by someone else on purpose. If these elements cannot all be proven, your defense attorney can challenge your charges.

Examples of vandalism include:

  • Spraying graffiti on a building
  • Keying someone else's cars
  • Carving your name onto a public bench
  • Defacing road signs
  • Breaking windows

Vandalism charges could be considered a misdemeanor or felony, based on the circumstances. For a misdemeanor vandalism conviction, you could face up to a year in jail, fines and other penalties. A felony carries a more significant sentence, which includes at least one year in prison and steeper fines.

If the act of vandalism was committed on federal property (such as a national park), you could face felony charges.
