Existing law authorizes the court, in its discretion, to require any person granted probation following conviction under those provisions to serve a specified number of hours of community service in any program deemed appropriate by the court.This bill would additionally make a person who commits 2nd-degree burglary or grand theft, or who commits petty theft, under an evacuation order resulting from one of the above-described disasters guilty of the crime of looting or a misdemeanor, respectively. The bill would define evacuation order as an order from the Governor, or a county sheriff, chief of police, or fire marshal, under which persons subject to the order are required to relocate outside of the geographic area covered by the order due to an imminent danger resulting from an earthquake, fire, flood, riot, or other natural or manmade disaster. By expanding the scope of existing crimes, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.This bill would also impose on a person who commits first-degree burglary under the above-described conditions, including an evacuation order, a 2-year sentence enhancement, to be served in addition and consecutive to the sentence imposed for the first-degree burglary conviction. In addition to whatever custody is ordered, the bill would authorize the court, in its discretion, to require any person granted probation following conviction and sentence enhancement under these provisions to serve up to 240 hours of community service in any program deemed appropriate by the court, including any program created to rebuild the community.The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state.
