Enrolled Bill Summary

Senate Bill 968 amends the Code of Criminal Procedure to require a judge to determine if a defendant who has been convicted of theft of motor fuel has a previous conviction for the same offense. If the defendant has two convictions, the bill provides for the suspension of the person's driver's license or the denial of a new driver's license for 180 days. The suspension or denial is for one year if the person's license has previously been suspended or the person was denied a new driver's license for the offense of motor fuel theft.
