Definition of Penal Code Section 594 under California Law

California Penal Code 594 states that the crime of “Vandalism” is committed by any person who maliciously commits any of the following acts with respect to any real or personal property not his or her own, when he (1) Defaces with graffiti or other inscribed material, or (2) Damages or Destroys any real or personal property of another.

Vandalism is a property crime that the state may charge as a misdemeanor or even a felony. The state will not hesitate to prosecute you for the criminal damage caused by your actions. That means a wide variety of destructive or unsightly behaviors could be considered vandalism, including seemingly minor crimes like shooting at a stop sign or scratching a name into a desk.
