⚖️ About This Charge
Offense
Possession of a Controlled Substance in Penalty Group 1 or 1-B
Classification
State Jail Felony
Max Penalty
180 days–2 years in state jail + up to $10,000 fine
Possession of a Controlled Substance in Penalty Group 1 or 1-B under the Texas Controlled Substances Act covers substances including cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine, oxycodone, and — under PG 1-B — fentanyl and its analogs. The severity of the offense is entirely weight-driven, ranging from a State Jail Felony for trace amounts to an enhanced First-Degree Felony for 200 grams or more. Texas does not have a simple possession misdemeanor for PG 1 substances — even the smallest measurable amount is a felony. Fentanyl (PG 1-B) carries the same penalty structure. A conviction results in a permanent felony record, loss of firearm rights, and potential loss of federal student aid, public housing eligibility, and professional licenses.
