What is Larceny (Stealing) by Finding?
Stealing by Finding occurs when a person finds property and believes that the true owner can be located upon reasonable inquiry but decides to keep or appropriate the property for themselves. A person finding property must consider whether the owner of goods could be found. For example, finding a $10 note on the side of the road is an entirely different situation to finding a wallet with identification in it.
