TO: | Honorable James White, Chair, House Committee on Corrections |
FROM: | John McGeady, Assistant Director Sarah Keyton, Assistant Director Legislative Budget Board |
IN RE: | HB1653 by White (relating to pretrial diversion programs funded by the community justice assistance division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.), Committee Report 1st House, Substituted |
The provisions of the bill addressed by this analysis would amend various codes as they relate to pretrial diversion programs funded by the community justice assistance division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.
The bill does not expressly create a felony offense, increase the punishment for an existing misdemeanor to that of a felony, increase the punishment for an existing felony offense or category of felony level offenses, or change the eligibility of a person for felony community supervision, parole, or mandatory supervision. This analysis assumes the provisions of the bill would not result in a significant impact on state correctional populations or on the demand for state correctional resources.
