Defending Breaking and Entering Charges

There is a distinction between misdemeanor and felony breaking and entering charges, based on the circumstances surrounding the event as well as the type of premises involved. Breaking and entering into a private residence, for example, will likely be classified as a felony offense, as with home break-ins, there is a higher likelihood of bodily injury or death occurring.
