How much can I steal?
If the amount of theft reaches 1000 yuan to 3,000 yuan, a case can be filed.
According to the criminal law, theft refers to the act of stealing a large amount of public and private property. According to the judicial interpretation, a large amount refers to the theft of public or private property worth more than 1,000 yuan and less than 3,000 yuan.
The Supreme People's Court said that higher people's courts in different regions can adjust the amount of cases filed for theft according to local economic conditions.
Taking Guangdong Province as an example, the Higher People's Court of Guangdong Province stipulated that the amount of Guangdong theft should be filed, which is divided into two categories: the first category is 3,000 yuan, and the second category is 2,000 yuan. The first category refers to Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Zhuhai, Foshan, Zhongshan and Dongguan, and other counties and cities are the second category.
Therefore, it depends on the specific standards in various regions of the country to determine the amount of theft.
