Robbery is forcible stealing. A person forcibly steals property and
commits robbery when, in the course of committing a larceny, he uses or
threatens the immediate use of physical force upon another person for
the purpose of:
1. Preventing or overcoming resistance to the taking of the property
or to the retention thereof immediately after the taking; or
2. Compelling the owner of such property or another person to deliver
up the property or to engage in other conduct which aids in the
commission of the larceny.
Bank robbery in federal court is extremely serious, with convictions carrying a sentence of up to life imprisonment, or even the death penalty under certain circumstances.
It is imperative to contact an experience attorney immediately to give you the best defense possible.
