New Jersey A326 increases penalties for repeat offenses of receiving stolen motor vehicles for both adults and juveniles.
New Jersey A326, the "Stolen Vehicle Possession Accountability Act," establishes a second degree crime for individuals convicted or adjudicated delinquent of a third offense for receiving a stolen motor vehicle. The bill mandates that a person convicted of such a crime on two or more prior and separate occasions within a 15-year period must serve a mandatory minimum period of parole ineligibility. For adults, this includes serving 85% of the sentence without eligibility for parole. Juveniles who commit such offenses on two or more prior occasions face a maximum of 10 years of imprisonment.
