Answer:

Lesser included charges.

Step-by-step explanation:

In criminal law, the term "lesser included charge" is a term used to refer to a crime that is included in a much greater crime. This means that a convict cannot commit a greater crime without committing a lesser one.

In this criminal case, all the elements needed to commit a crime are also found in a more serious crime. For instance, larceny is simply stealing someone's property with the intention of permanently taking it away from the owner. Similarly, robbery is also a different case of larceny except that it involves the use of force or intimidation on others. Thus, larceny is a lesser crime than robbery, but they all arise from the same incident.

Thus, the correct answer is the third option.
