Residential Burglary
Penal Code Section 459a
Any person who enters the home of another with the intent to steal or commit a felony is guilty of burglary in the first degree. This carries a punishment of up to 6 years in prison although first time offenders, if they plea guilty or are found guilty usually do less than 1 year in county jail. Although residential burglary does not appear violent in nature it is considered a “strike” offense. It is very important to be represented by an attorney experienced in these matters.
