If charged with a second petty larceny will you be charged with grand larceny?

In: Law & Legal Issues, Criminal Law [Edit categories]

Answer:

The terms 'petty/petit' larceny and 'grand' larceny refer to the dollar amount of the stolen item's (check your local statutes to determine the separating point). Two petty larcenies, committed at separate times, don't "add up" to a grand larceny.
