Section R994-405-212 - Dishonesty or Other Disqualifying Crimes(1) For the purposes of this subsection, dishonesty generally means theft. Theft is defined as taking property without the owner's consent. Theft also includes swindling, embezzlement and obtaining possession of property by lawful means and thereafter converting it to the taker's own use. Theft includes: (a) obtaining or exerting unauthorized control over property;(b) obtaining control over property by threat or deception;(c) obtaining control knowing the property was stolen; and,(d) obtaining services from another by deception, threat, coercion, stealth, mechanical tampering or by use of a false token or device.(2) Felonies and Class A misdemeanors are also disqualifying even if they are not theft-related such as assault, arson, or destruction of property. Whether the crime is a felony or misdemeanor is determined by the court's verdict and not by the penalty imposed.(3) A disqualification under this Subsection 35A-4-405(2)(b) may be assessed against Utah claimants based upon equivalent convictions in other states.Utah Admin.
