Burglary (2nd Degree) requires entering a building without consent WITH a partner and possessing a deadly weapon or causing injury. This is which classification?

• A. Felony (class A)
• B. Misdemeanor (class C)
• C. Felony (class B)
• D. Felony (class C)

Answer: (C)

The situation is testing how aggravating factors in burglary change its classification. When someone enters a building without consent and does so with another person plus uses a deadly weapon or causes injury, the offense becomes aggravated burglary in the second degree. In this system, felonies are ranked A, then B, then C, with A being the most serious. The combination of an accomplice and a weapon or injury elevates the charge to a felony of the second degree—class B. The other options don’t fit because it isn’t the most serious (class A), it isn’t a misdemeanor, and the aggravating factors push it to class B rather than staying at class C.
