HOUSE BILL 432 |
HOUSE AUTHOR: Place et al. |
EFFECTIVE: 05-23-97 |
SENATE SPONSOR: Whitmire |
House Bill 432 corrects an oversight made during the rewrite of the Penal Code by adding two felony categories to the list of those that preclude release on mandatory supervision. During the rewrite, second degree felony murder and second degree felony indecency with a child were added to the list of "3g" offenses, but individuals convicted of these offenses were unintentionally left off the corresponding list of those not eligible for mandatory release. The act also adds third degree felony indecency with a child to the list.
