What “MAN/DEL CS PG 1 >= 200G < 400G” means

Texas Health and Safety Code § 481.112(e) addresses knowingly manufacturing, delivering, or possessing with intent to deliver a Penalty Group 1 controlled substance in an aggregate weight, including adulterants or dilutants, of 200 grams or more but less than 400 grams. Penalty Group 1 covers drugs such as cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine, and oxycodone; fentanyl and its derivatives were moved to Penalty Group 1-B in 2023 and are charged under a separate statute. Manufacture includes production, compounding, conversion, processing, and packaging, while delivery means any actual or constructive transfer and includes offering to sell. Because the offense is defined by weight, the 200-to-400-gram range is the element that distinguishes this first-degree felony bracket from subsection (d), which tops out below 200 grams, and subsection (f), which applies at 400 grams or more.
