Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Linley E. Pearson, Atty. Gen., Theodore E. Hansen, Deputy Atty. Gen., Indianapolis, for appellee.


HOFFMAN, Presiding Judge.

Joseph Jones was convicted of burglary, a class C felony, pursuant to IND. CODE § 35-43-2-1 and received a five-year sentence. In appealing his conviction, Jones raises the sole issue of whether there was sufficient evidence to sustain the conviction for burglary. More specifically, Jones argues that the trial court applied the wrong legal standard to the intent element in opposition to Jones' defense of intoxication.
