Terroristic Threat under Texas Penal Code § 22.07 covers threatening violence with intent to cause fear of imminent serious bodily injury, or to place the public in fear of serious bodily injury. Against an individual, it is typically a Class B Misdemeanor (up to 180 days jail, $2,000 fine). If directed at a family member, it becomes a Class A Misdemeanor. Threats against a public official, school, or designed to cause public fear are third-degree felonies (2–10 years prison). The charge is often filed in domestic violence contexts.
