Relating to the criminal penalties for possession or delivery of marihuana concentrate.
HB 848 amends Texas law to adjust criminal penalties for possessing or delivering marijuana concentrate. It specifically defines "marijuana concentrate" as resin extracted from marijuana or related compounds (Section 2), and reclassifies delivery offenses based on quantity and whether payment was received (Section 3). For example, delivering 1.5 grams or less of concentrate without payment becomes a Class B misdemeanor, while delivering the same amount with payment becomes a Class A misdemeanor. The bill directly affects individuals possessing or distributing marijuana concentrate who exceed these specific weight thresholds, changing how their offenses are categorized under Texas law.
