Answered . Most of us know that theft means stealing. What makes
it first degree is the amount stolen. If it is alleged that over
$1,500 was stolen, then the theft becomes first degree. First
degree theft is a felony. If you are under the age of 18, then
the prosecutor could file charges against you in juvenile court.
There is not specific class of theft for minors. The
significance of a minor committing a crime of theft is that it
is handled in juvenile court.  Can't find what you're looking
