What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
Under current law, it is a Class F felony to enter a dwelling or certain other places with intent to steal or commit a felony therein. Under the bill, it is a Class F felony to enter one of those places with the intent to commit battery, regardless of whether the battery was a misdemeanor or felony battery.
Because this bill creates a new crime or revises a penalty for an existing crime, the Joint Review Committee on Criminal Penalties may be requested to prepare a report.
