What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Ohio
A friend of mine came into my uncle's house and stole two older U.S. coins valued at approx.$50.00 while we were home. We didn't notice they were missing for about a month. I know over a certain amount I believe it's $500 becomes a felony. Since we were in the home while this occurred, does that change the charge, if my uncles chooses to press them, from a misdemeanor to a felony since it occurred while we were here?
