Re: Grand larceny

Grand larceny is larceny committed in either of the following cases:

1. When the property taken is of value exceeding Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00);

2. When such property, although not of value exceeding Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00), is taken from the person of another.

Larceny in other cases is petit larceny.

Generally, grand larceny carries up to five (5) years in prison but can go higher depending on the situation. If you need legal representation and live in northeast Oklahoma, you can email me directly by through my email address in the footer.
