Which offense corresponds to code 1086?

• A. Grand Larceny
• B. Petit Larceny
• C. Shoplifting
• D. Vandalism

Answer: (B)

Code 1086 maps to petit larceny, the theft of property of relatively small value. This is the best match because the code is used for petty theft offenses, which are less serious than grand larceny. Vandalism involves damaging or destroying property, not stealing, so it doesn’t fit. Shoplifting is a form of theft from a store, and while it can be charged as petit larceny in many cases, the 1086 designation specifically corresponds to petit larceny in this system.
