Which of the following is NOT a classification of theft in California Penal Code?

Robbery is classified as a distinct crime separate from theft in California Penal Code. While both involve the unlawful taking of property, robbery specifically entails taking property from a person or in their immediate presence through force or intimidation. This distinguishes robbery from the classifications of theft, which include grand theft (theft of property valued above a certain amount) and petty theft (theft of property valued below that amount).

The term "theft" itself is a broader category that encompasses various types of unlawful taking of another's property, including both grand and petty theft. Thus, the options related to grand theft and petty theft directly fall under the classification of theft within the penal code, whereas robbery does not. This clear distinction helps to categorize offenses based on their nature and the severity of the circumstances surrounding the act.
