Understanding Aggravated Assault Charges in Texas
from Top Notch DWI Lawyers in Houston · host The Hill Law Firm
Aggravated assault in Texas can be classified as either a second-degree or first-degree felony, depending on the circumstances. Generally, it is charged as a second-degree felony, punishable by 2 to 20 years in prison and a fine of up to $10,000. However, if the assault is committed against a public servant, a family member in a domestic violence context, or results in severe injury, it may be elevated to a first-degree felony. A first-degree felony conviction can lead to 5 to 99 years or life imprisonment.
