1Opinion of the CourtFitzgerald, J.

Defendants in this case were charged with having broken into a commercial building in the nighttime in the city of Pontiac with intent to commit the crime of larceny therein under the provisions of CL 1948, § 750.110 (Stat Ann 1962 Rev § 28.305). All were found guilty by a jury and defendant Simpson was sentenced to 4 to 10 years, defendant Griffin to 3 to 10 years, and defendant Carson to 1 to 10 years.

On appeal, counsel for defendants urges among his allegations of error a question of first impression, the others being more familiar to the criminal jurisprudence of this State.
