FRAUD DEL CS/PRESCRIPTION SCH II/SCRIPT FORM

Texas Health and Safety Code § 481.129 defines the fraud offenses of the Texas Controlled Substances Act. The variant reflected in the courthouse label "FRAUD DEL CS/PRESCRIPTION SCH II/SCRIPT FORM" rests on § 481.129(a-1): knowingly or intentionally delivering a prescription or a prescription form for other than a valid medical purpose in the course of professional practice, or possessing a prescription for a controlled substance or a prescription form that was not lawfully issued or delivered to the possessor — conduct such as trafficking in blank or stolen prescription pads or holding prescriptions written for someone else. Under the grading provision cited, § 481.129(f)(1), the offense is a second-degree felony when the prescription or prescription form at issue is for a Schedule II controlled substance, the schedule that includes drugs such as oxycodone, hydrocodone, fentanyl, and amphetamine; lower schedules are graded less severely.

Ranges are the statutory maximums for the level; enhancements, prior convictions and plea agreements change what is actually imposed.
