data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>When most people think of &#8220;white-collar crime,&#8221;\u00a0 they imagine things like a courtroom drama with a corporate executive, a fraud squad raid and a headline-making incident.\u00a0<\/p><p>In practice, most fraud charges are nothing like that. They usually start with a payroll clerk, a bookkeeper or a small business owner, and a bank statement that doesn&#8217;t add up.<\/p><p>This article is a closer look at the reality of fraud and white-collar crime.<\/p><h2><b>What actually makes a fraud charge &#8220;white collar&#8221;<\/b><\/h2><p>The term is often thrown around loosely, but the distinction is actually much simpler than the label suggests.<\/p><p>&#8220;White collar crime typically involves large-scale fraudulent conduct,&#8221; says Jade Turner, Special Counsel in Kingsford Lawyers&#8217; criminal law team. &#8220;Someone working in payroll stealing hundreds of thousands, or millions, of dollars from their employer is a common example.&#8221;<\/p><p>General dishonesty or theft, on the other hand, tends to be on a much smaller scale, such as taking goods from a store or property from another person. The legal elements overlap (both involve dishonesty), but the conduct, the amounts involved and the position held by the accused are what differentiate a fraud matter from a shoplifting charge.<\/p><p>Having a position of trust is the detail that usually changes everything. An employee with legitimate access to company funds, a director with signing authority or a bookkeeper in control of the ledger is in a different position than someone who simply takes something that isn&#8217;t theirs.<\/p><p>For courts, employers and prosecutors, breaching trust is a big part of what makes this matter so serious, regardless of the dollar figure involved.<\/p><h2><b>How courts decide where a fraud charge is heard<\/b><\/h2><p>Most people make incorrect assumptions when it comes to white-collar crime charges, as it&#8217;s not simply a straightforward matter of &#8220;small matters stay local, big matters go to trial.&#8221;<\/p><p>Turner explains the framework prosecutors and defence lawyers actually work with:\u00a0<\/p><blockquote><p><strong>&#8220;There are offences which are strictly summary, meaning they stay in the Local or Magistrates Court from beginning to end. There are indictable offences that can be dealt with in the Local or Magistrates Court, or the District Court, depending on the seriousness of the offending. And there are strictly indictable offences that can only go to the District or Supreme Court.&#8221;<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote><p>The category a fraud charge falls into is set out in the legislation itself. In the event an offence could go either way, there are several things that can move it into a higher court: the accused can elect for a jury trial, the prosecution can make that choice in certain cases, or both parties can agree.<\/p><p>How the amount involved is factored into this decision depends on the state in question.\u00a0<\/p><p>Queensland and Victoria both set a specific dollar threshold in their legislation:<\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In <\/span><b>Queensland<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, a fraud charge must be dealt with summarily in the Magistrates Court if the value involved is under $30,000. At or above that figure, it goes to the District Court, unless the accused elects otherwise or the court itself decides the matter is too serious to be dealt with summarily (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/classic.austlii.edu.au\/au\/legis\/qld\/consol_act\/cc189994\/s552b.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Criminal Code 1899<\/span><\/i><\/a><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (Qld)<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> s 552B).<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In <\/span><b>Victoria<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, related property offences can be heard summarily where the value doesn&#8217;t exceed $100,000 (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.austlii.edu.au\/cgi-bin\/viewdoc\/au\/legis\/vic\/consol_act\/cpa2009188\/sch2.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Criminal Procedure Act 2009<\/span><\/i><\/a><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (Vic)<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, Schedule 2).<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In <\/span><b>New South Wales<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, fraud doesn&#8217;t carry a fixed dollar threshold at all. Most fraud matters are dealt with in the Local Court unless the prosecution or the accused elects trial by jury, regardless of the amount involved (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/legislation.nsw.gov.au\/view\/html\/inforce\/current\/act-1986-209\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Criminal Procedure Act 1986<\/span><\/i><\/a><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (NSW)<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, Schedule 1).<\/span><\/li><\/ul><p>In practice, this means that the same fraud amount could be dealt with in three different courts depending on which state the charges are in. That&#8217;s a genuinely useful thing to know before assuming a matter is &#8220;too big&#8221; or &#8220;too small&#8221; to be taken seriously.<\/p><h2><b>A matter that turned out better than expected<\/b><\/h2><p>Not every fraud matter is settled how the initial charge sheet suggests.\u00a0<\/p><p>Turner shared one case from her own practice which is worth looking at because it shows how much the circumstances around the offence itself, not just the dollar figure, can shape the outcome.<\/p><p>The client had been charged with Commonwealth fraud offences for failing to lodge the required personal and business tax returns, which carries substantial financial penalties and put the client at serious risk of a criminal conviction.\u00a0<\/p><p>Turner negotiated directly with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ato.gov.au\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ATO&#8217;s<\/a> lawyer and argued that the offence was at the low end of seriousness because it arose from disorganisation and impaired functioning during a period of significant personal hardship, rather than any intention to evade tax or gain a financial advantage.<\/p><p>The client had no prior criminal record, had since rectified every outstanding obligation and put safeguards in place to prevent the same thing from happening again. Because the client was facing potentially disproportionate consequences on top of an already difficult period, it was decided that continuing the prosecution wasn&#8217;t in the public interest, and the charges were withdrawn in full.<\/p><p>Turner says:<\/p><blockquote><p><strong>&#8220;Having worked on serious fraud matters as both a prosecutor and defence lawyer, I understand that the smallest detail can change the course of a case. My approach, developed over many years working on large and complex fraud matters, is about identifying the issues that actually matter and building a considered defence around them.&#8221;<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote><p>Cases turn on their specific facts and circumstances. Every fraud matter is different, and no outcome can be guaranteed based on someone else&#8217;s result.<\/p><h2><b>The scale, not the charge sheet, tells the real story<\/b><\/h2><p>A fraud charge can look identical on paper in three different states, but be dealt with in different ways and in different places depending on the circumstances. What separates a genuinely serious white-collar matter from a lower-level dishonesty charge isn&#8217;t just the number attached to it; it&#8217;s the scale of the conduct and the position of trust behind it.<\/p><p>If you&#8217;re facing a fraud charge, or you&#8217;re not sure whether what you&#8217;re dealing with counts as white-collar crime at all, it&#8217;s always worth getting advice early rather than assuming you already know where it&#8217;s headed.<\/p><p>Fill out the form on our site or call <a href=\"tel: 1300 244 342\">1300 244 342<\/a> to <a href=\"https:\/\/kingsfordlawyers.com.au\/contact-us\/\">book a free chat with Kingsford Lawyers<\/a> today, with no obligation or pressure to proceed.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-65eeb34f elementor-post-navigation-borders-yes elementor-widget elementor-widget-post-navigation\" data-id=\"65eeb34f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"post-navigation.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post-navigation\" role=\"navigation\" aria-label=\"Post Navigation\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post-navigation__prev elementor-post-navigation__link\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/kingsfordlawyers.com.au\/af\/company-wont-pay-statutory-demand\/\" rel=\"prev\"><span class=\"post-navigation__arrow-wrapper post-navigation__arrow-prev\"><i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"fas fa-angle-left\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-screen-only\">Prev<\/span><\/span><span class=\"elementor-post-navigation__link__prev\"><span class=\"post-navigation__prev--label\">Previous<\/span><span class=\"post-navigation__prev--title\">A Company Owes You Money and Won&#8217;t Pay?
