P.C. 30.02
…felony of the second degree if committed in a habitation…
Today, I learned that if a woman:
- is in the process of getting a low-cost divorce
- has filed for a protective order
- and called the cops to her house four times in the previous two days (once for an assault family violence);
if her soon-to-be ex-husband:
- breaks through the window of her residence,
- in which he has not lived for five months,
- has no personal property
- is not on the lease,
- and commits an assault against a third party;
the husband will be free to leave with no consequences as the two are still legally married.
