In both Connecticut and New York, you could be charged with a felony larceny offense if the property was worth more than $1,000. For offenses involving property worth less than $1,000, larceny is a misdemeanor offense. Whether you are convicted of a felony or misdemeanor larceny offense, you could face jail time, fines and a criminal record.
