IN RE:
HB3221 by Callegari (Relating to the records of certain vehicle repairs, sales, and purchases; providing penalties.), As Introduced

The provision of the bill that is the subject of this analysis would amend the Occupations Code by making the repeat violation of the consent to entry and inspection provision of the bill punishable as a state jail felony. 
 
A state jail felony is punishable by confinement in a state jail for any term of not more than two years or less than 180 days, or, in addition to confinement, a fine not to exceed $10,000. 
 
It is assumed that the number of persons 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.
