FROM: | John Keel, Director, Legislative Budget Board |
IN RE: | HB716 by Delisi (Relating to the punishment for assaults committed against certain sports officials.), As Engrossed |
The bill would amend the Penal Code by enhancing the punishment of the offense of assault if committed against a person the actor knows is a sports official. It is assumed that the number of offenders convicted under this statute would not result in a significant impact on the programs and workload of state corrections agencies or on the demand for resources and services of those agencies.
