A quick definition of thieve:

Thieve: To take something that doesn't belong to you without permission. This is also called theft. Theft is when someone takes something that belongs to someone else on purpose. It's against the law and can get you in trouble. There are different types of theft, like cybertheft (stealing things online), petty theft (stealing something small), and theft by deception (tricking someone to give you their things).

A more thorough explanation:

Definition:

Thieve (verb) means to steal or commit theft or larceny. Theft (noun) is the act of taking someone else's personal property with the intention of depriving the true owner of it. It includes larceny, burglary, embezzlement, and false pretenses. Many modern penal codes have consolidated these property offenses under the name "theft."

Examples:

  • Cybertheft: stealing someone's personal information or money through the internet.
  • Petty theft: stealing a small amount of cash or low-value goods or services.
  • Theft by deception: using trickery to obtain someone's property, such as creating a false impression or failing to disclose a known lien or legal impediment.
  • Theft by extortion: obtaining property by threatening to harm someone, accuse them of a crime, or damage their reputation.
  • Theft of property lost, mislaid, or delivered by mistake: taking control of property that one knows is lost, mislaid, or delivered by mistake and failing to take reasonable measures to return it to the rightful owner.
  • Theft of services: obtaining services from someone through deception, threat, coercion, or other means.

These examples illustrate different forms of theft and how they can be committed. For instance, cybertheft involves stealing through the internet, while theft by deception involves using trickery to obtain someone's property. Theft by extortion involves threatening someone to obtain their property, while theft of services involves obtaining services through deception or other means.

@mastermonkey45: Looking at some of the recent decisions in relation to when they went complete, I'd say it's a good sign. It seems many declines were sent within about 5-6 weeks of completion. Given those were applications that were SENT in January, I'd say that means you're still solidly in the running. :)

Give it 4 more weeks at least. Everyone in this chat needs to wait longer.
