The type of research used is normative juridical with a descriptive-analytical approach, discussing existing legal symptoms and problems and testing them based on laws regulations, and legal norms. The results of this study show that the crime of theft is classified into ordinary theft under Article 362, theft under Article 363, petty theft under Article 364, and Theft with violence under Article 365. The cause of disparities in theft crimes is caused by conflicting criminal rules, judges' considerations, and the integrity of law enforcement.
