AI Summary
This bill amends sections of Chapter 266 of the General Laws to increase the larceny thresholds. Specifically, it increases the threshold for felony larceny from $250 to $1,500, and the threshold for aggravated larceny from $300 to $2,500. The bill also removes certain penalties related to larceny from a common carrier or express business. These changes are intended to update the larceny thresholds, which have not been adjusted in many years, to reflect the current economic conditions and cost of living.
