It is likely a burglary under California statute- entering building with intent to commit a felony or any theft. In this case theft by fraud with stolen card. A petty misdemeanor becomes a felony by walking through the door.

If you are being tried, you must have a lawyer.

You are setting yourself up for failure.

Rule 1: STFU about your case,except to speak ONLY to your lawyer.

Rule 2: If you don't have a lawyer, hire one, or ask the court to appoint one to represent you.

Rule 3: STFU about your case, except to discuss it ONLY with your lawyer!!!
