What is the classification for burglarizing any building other than a habitation?

• A. First Degree Felony
• B. Second Degree Felony
• C. State Jail Felony
• D. Third Degree Felony

Answer: (C)

In burglary cases, the punishment level depends on the type of structure involved. Burglary of a building that is not a habitation is classified as a state jail felony. This reflects that the offense involves entering a non-residential structure with the intent to commit a felony, theft, or an assault, which is treated as serious but not as severe as burglary of a home. If the structure had been a habitation, the offense would carry a higher-level felony. So the correct classification for burglarizing a building other than a habitation is the state jail felony.
