Comment
I.C. � 18-1401.
This instruction reflects the 1992 legislative consolidation of first-degree burglary and second degree burglary into a single offense of Burglary. 1992 Sess. Laws, ch. 167, � 1. The consolidated offense is applicable to those crimes of burglary occurring on or after July 1, 1992.
If the pertinent offense in number 4 is not charged as a separate count, the court should give an appropriate instruction defining that offense, e.g., ICJI 574 (Theft).
