Theft-1st Degree Felony applies to theft valued at which range?

• A. $150,000 but less than $300,000
• B. $150,000 or more
• C. Less than $150,000
• D. $300,000 or more

Answer: (A)

Value drives the severity of a theft charge. In this material, Theft-1st Degree Felony is triggered when the property's value is between $150,000 and less than $300,000. That exact band makes it the most serious theft offense within that lower-to-mid range, but not the highest category. If the value falls below $150,000, it would be a lesser offense, and if the value is $300,000 or more, it would fall into a different, higher classification as defined by the statute. So the range of $150,000 to just under $300,000 is the threshold that defines Theft-1st Degree Felony in this context.
