Criminal Trespass under Texas Penal Code § 30.05 occurs when a person enters or remains on property without the owner's consent after receiving notice to leave. Notice can be verbal, written, or posted. A standard criminal trespass is a Class B Misdemeanor (up to 180 days jail, $2,000 fine). It becomes a Class A Misdemeanor if committed on agricultural land, a superfund site, or a critical infrastructure facility. Carrying a deadly weapon during a criminal trespass elevates the charge to a third-degree felony.
