    It depends. If you were just messing around in an abandoned house the Judge could reduce it to simple trespassing and give you a summary offense fine.
    If you break into a business or residence it can be much more serious.

    Is it considered abandoned if the person that use to live there died a couple months ago?

    In a sense it is abandoned.
    Is the only charge they gave you the b&e?

    So he has priors but they did not give him any other fines with this? Sometimes they will get you for everything they can and then maybe reduce the charges later.

    Is he on probation?

    I believe the max time is about 10 years. Most likely will not get that.

    If on probation, most likely have to serve some of that time since this will almost for sure revolk probation.

    Best bet of course is for attorney to try and get him out of it, or plea a good deal

    Yeah plea a good deal.
    They tried to get me on breaking and entering an abandoned house. They gave me and the neighbors I was with charges of conspiracy ring, breaking and entering, trespassing and burglary. The relative of the guy that died and the demolition guy vouched for us and they reduced it to the trespassing and we had to each pay a $250. Fine.
    I would say that is the least he can get off on but with priors IDK.

    That doesn't mean anything really. If there is a will then they might not be able to touch the cars because of legal reasons that need sorted.
    Somebody has to own it even if it is the state.
    No land or building goes into abandoned where it isn't owned by anybody.

    IDK
    I don't know how much harsher they are if you have priors.
    I know the ADR and how it works but I rarely see any body getting the maxium or even the minimum.
    If they don't take the priors into consideration and give him the minimum I would say it could be a fine, put it on his record and let him go.

    Maybe with a lawyer he can get it reduced to a misdemeanor,something like criminal trespassing or even trespassing. There a chance he can get probation or a short amt of time in jail .

    He needs to speak to a lawyer and they can tell him the chance of getting the charge reduced and how strict the da and judge is. It depends.
