A man went to his lawyer and told him, "My neighbor owes me $500 and he won’t pay up. What should I do?" "Do you have any proof he owes you the money?" asked the lawyer. "Nope," replied the man. "OK, then write him a letter asking him for the $5,000 he owed you," said the lawyer. "But it's only $500," replied the man. "Precisely. That’s what he will reply and then you’ll have your proof!"
Yes, that might work - if the guy isn't too bright.
That reminds me of then guy accused of a crime, and he said something like, "I didn't break in. The window was open." There are lots of examples of this.
That's what I did when I was collecting for a furniture store works you will hear from them

Sounds like a law school question. Actually the guy is right, he did not "break in" (depending on state law now) but he still committed a number of crimes so it's not a huge point in his favor.
It is only a burglary if there is “an intent to commit a crime therein.” Otherwise, it could be one of or a number of different criminal tres passes. This type of question that shows up on law school exams, is a very complex question, not often a straightforward or simple one as at first it seems.
