Stealing Property as a Tenant is an offence under Section 154 of the Crimes Act 1900 which carries a maximum penalty of 5 years in prison.
To establish the offence, the prosecution must prove beyond reasonable doubt that:
A ‘chattel’ is a moveable piece of property, whereas a ‘fixture’ is property that is attached to the premises with the intention of it remaining there permanently or indefinitely.
