Understanding Burglary Laws
While burglary is often associated with theft, it can be charged in relation to any felony– or any intended felony. According to Ind. Code § 35-43-2-1, a burglar is “a person who breaks and enters the building or structure of another person, with intent to commit a felony in it.” This can be charged as a Class C felony.
However, burglary can be charged as a Class B felony when:
The accused is armed with a deadly weapon
The building is a dwelling (a home or residence)
The building is a place of religious worship
Burglary can also be charged as a Class A felony when:
The accused causes bodily injury to another person
The accused caused serious bodily injury to another person
The penalties associated with these charges depend on the felony classification– but all of them can result in serious prison time. For more on the specifics of your burglary charge and how an experienced team of advocates can help you assert your side of the story, contact Wruble Law LLC today.
