The Kennedys moved out of their home on Saturday. Their son, Tom, was scheduled to move into the home on Wednesday. On Sunday, James broke into the home and stole the furniture that was left in the home
Did James commit burglary of an occupied structure? Explain your answer.
Yes in some states and no in others. In some states, the temporary absence of residents from a residence does not cause the building to lose its character as a dwelling for purposes of the burglary statute. In other states, the fact that the Kennedys no longer lived in the home and it was not presently occupied would make the home unoccupied.
