Title: Theft vs. Larceny
Post by: Roger Bacon on July 09, 2013, 06:26:10 PM
Can someone please explain to me the difference between theft and larceny?  Or when theft becomes larceny?

I've googled it, but I'm not understanding?

???

Don't steal and you'll never have to worry about it.

I think they are different words for the same thing.

They are more or less synonyms to most people, but theft is a bit broader. Larceny has fallen out of favor because it's an older term and its definition required that the property be physical and of a nature that it could be taken away. So "theft" allows services, land, etc.... to be included.

Robbery is theft when there is direct personal contact made with the victim, usually with violence or threat of violence.

Burglary is the entering an area with the intention of theft.

In most states the line between petit and grand larceny/theft is $500, but that sometimes changes.
