What Is Burglary Under Florida Law?

Florida Statute § 810.02 defines burglary as entering a dwelling, structure, or conveyance with the intent to commit a crime inside, without permission. There are three degrees of burglary:

  • First-degree: Armed burglary or burglary involving assault/battery or property damage over $1,000

  • Second-degree: Unarmed burglary of an occupied dwelling or structure

  • Third-degree: Unarmed burglary of an unoccupied structure or conveyance

Each level carries distinct penalties, with first-degree burglary punishable by up to life imprisonment.
