State vs. Jarvis Loverson

A Shelby County jury convicted the appellant, Jarvis Loverson, of one (1) count of theft of property over $1,000, a Class D felony, and one (1) count of attempted theft of property over $10,000, a Class D felony. The trial court sentenced the appellant as a Range II offender to consecutive terms of twelve (12) years for each offense. On appeal, the appellant contends that the evidence is insufficient to sustain his convictions for theft of property and attempted theft of property. After thoroughly reviewing the record before this Court, we conclude that the state failed to present any evidence regarding the value of the subject property. As a result, the appellant's conviction for theft of property over $1,000 is modified to theft of property valued at $500 or less, and his conviction for attempted theft of property over $10,000 is modified to attempted theft of property with a value of $500 or less.
