Best Answer

Personally I am unfamiliar with the LA statute but in many (most?) jurisdictions whether it is classified as a felony or a misdemeanor depends on the dollar amount of the property in question. (e.g.: possession of a stolen tricycle would be a misdemeanor, but possession of a stolen truck would be a felony)

Shoplifting is a generic description for the offense of LARCENY. The difference between a misdemeanor charge and a felony charge can hinge on the total value of the items stolen. (for instance: some states set the "break point" between a misdemeanor and a felony offense at $100. - if the total stolen is less than that it's misdemeanor - more than that it's a felony.) You 'll have to check Nevada's state statutes.
