petty larceny
Petty larceny, also known as petty theft, refers to the crime of stealing items of relatively low value, typically defined by law as below a certain monetary threshold. It is considered a misdemeanor rather than a felony, which means it usually carries lighter penalties, such as fines or short jail sentences. The specific value that classifies theft as petty larceny can vary by jurisdiction.
