In a burglary of a habitation case the jury charge improperly asked the jury to vote on only one crime in the application paragraph, which mentioned two ways of committing theft. The trial court's jury charge should have explained both kinds of burglary and authorized jurors to convict on either. It explained only one kind in the abstract statement of the law and authorized conviction on the other in the application paragraph. Grissam v. State - PD-1532-07. [1]
