⚖️ Texas Law — Charge Details
Up to 99 years or life in prison (for Penalty Group 1, over 400g)
Possession of a Controlled Substance in Texas is governed by Health and Safety Code Chapter 481, which groups substances by their potential for abuse. Penalty Group 1 (cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine, fentanyl) carries the heaviest penalties: under 1 gram is a State Jail Felony; 1–4g is a 3rd-degree felony; 4–200g is a 2nd-degree felony; 200–400g is a 1st-degree felony; and over 400g carries 10–99 years or life. Penalty Group 2 (MDMA, PCP, psilocybin) has similar thresholds. Possession for delivery or manufacture carries enhanced penalties. Many first-time offenders may qualify for deferred adjudication or drug court diversion programs.
