Grand theft in Ohio refers to the theft of property valued above a certain monetary threshold or the taking of specific types of property, like a motor vehicle or firearm, with the intent to deprive the owner of it permanently.
Types of grand theft may include:
- Theft of a motor vehicle (auto theft)
- Theft of personal property of significant value

The penalties for grand theft can be severe, including jail time, hefty fines and a felony conviction on your record, which can impact your job, housing and more.
