CRIMINAL JUSTICE IMPACT STATEMENT
 
86TH LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION

TO:
Honorable James White, Chair, House Committee on Corrections
 
FROM:
John McGeady, Assistant Director     Sarah Keyton, Assistant Director
Legislative Budget Board
 
IN RE:
HB2623 by White (Relating to the requirements for a change of name for a person with a final felony conviction or a person required to register as a sex offender.), As Introduced

The provisions of the bill addressed by this analysis would amend the Family Code as it relates to the requirements for a change of name for a person with a final felony conviction or a person required to register as a sex offender. 

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 the demand for state correctional resources.
