Being accused of a crime-felony or misdemeanor-is a serious matter in the state of Maryland. Incarcerations, fines, and black mark on your record are all very real threats that accompany a criminal charge. It can be difficult for anyone to find jobs and lead a normal life following a conviction. A strong criminal defense attorney is often the only thing standing in between the accused and the harsh penalty of the law.
According to Maryland state law, burglary is defined as the act of entering a building, trailer, motor vehicle, aircraft, etc. without the owner's permission with the intent of stealing something (or committing another felony).
While burglary charges in Maryland are generally considered to be Class 2 felonies, should the event take place in a school or place of worship, it will be elevated to a Class 1 felony, which carries significantly harsher sentences.Like other felony charges, a conviction of burglary can result in permanent marks on the convict's record, hefty fines and/or jail time.
