R.B. BURNS, P.J.
Defendant was found guilty by a jury of breaking and entering with intent to commit larceny. MCLA 750.110; MSA 28.305.
A review of the record discloses no reversible error. We affirm.
During oral argument, defense counsel raised the issue that the trial judge, during his instructions, had informed the jury that the lesser included offense of entering without permission (MCLA 750.115; MSA 28.310) was a misdemeanor.
The writer of this opinion also authored People v Nichols, 50 Mich. App. 440; 213 N.W.2d 558 (1973), and in that case held such an instruction was error. But an incorrect decision was made in Nichols. In People v Burk, 238 Mich. 485; 213 N.W. 717 (1927), the Supreme Court upheld the trial court's practice of reading the statute to the jury. Statutes state whether the crime is a felony or a misdemeanor.
Affirmed.
All concurred.
