Legal Question in Criminal Law in Kentucky

Burglary

What makes the difference between 2nd and 3rd degree Burglary? I was under the impression 2nd degree was when someone was home in the residence and 3rd was when no one was home, is this correct?

Re: Burglary

2nd Degree Burglary covers "dwellings" while 3rd Degree Burglary covers "buildings" Dwellings are places where people live. Buildings are not necessarily residences/dwelling places (ie: office building, etc...) Good luck.
