State v. Geiger

This is an appeal from a plea of guilty to a charge of second degree burglary, a violation of A.R.S. §§ 13-301 and 13-302. By A.R.S. § 13-302(A), burglary is committed if a person enters a "store * * * with intent to commit * * * petty theft * * *." Appellant argues that there was not a sufficient factual basis to support the acceptance of his guilty plea to petty theft in that his statement to the trial court did not provide evidence of the requisite intent.
