Peter Schieffelin Nyberg, 49, of 155 Montrose Drive, pleaded not guilty Thursday to seven counts of felony larceny. His trial was set for May 12.
Nyberg was arrested in March 2012 in connection with the theft of more than $25,000 worth of jewelry and silverware from three homes in Apex's Scott Mill and Walden Creek subdivisions and two around High House Road and Davis Drive in Cary.
The thefts occurred while real estate agents were hosting open houses in the homes.
