In cases where property of relatively low value is stolen, petty or petit theft charges may result. States often place a specific dollar figure, such as $500 or $1,000, as the upper limit for petty theft charges.
In Georgia, theft will be considered a misdemeanor if the property that was the subject of the theft is below $500 in value. This is commonly referred to as petty theft. The penalties for misdemeanor theft involve a fine of no more than $1,000 and imprisonment for no more than 12 months. Felony theft is the theft of property that is valued more than $500. Depending on the severity of the theft, a judge can decide to deem a theft of items valued over $500 as a misdemeanor. This is solely at the discretion of the judge.
