MAN/DEL CS PG 1 >= 400G
Manufacture or Delivery of Controlled Substance Penalty Group 1 at least 400 g in Texas: what bail is set at, how often a personal bond is granted, and what usually happens to the charge.
What “MAN/DEL CS PG 1 >= 400G” means
Texas Health and Safety Code § 481.112(f) is the highest weight bracket for manufacture or delivery of a Penalty Group 1 controlled substance. The State must prove that the person knowingly manufactured, delivered, or possessed with intent to deliver a drug in Penalty Group 1 — a list that includes cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine, and oxycodone, with fentanyl now covered separately under Penalty Group 1-B — and that the aggregate weight, including any adulterants or dilutants, was 400 grams or more. "Deliver" means to transfer actually or constructively to another and includes an offer to sell; "manufacture" reaches producing, preparing, compounding, converting, processing, and packaging. The 400-gram threshold separates this first-degree felony variant from subsection (e), which covers 200 grams to under 400 grams. Court records abbreviate the charge as "MAN/DEL CS PG 1 >= 400G."
Also appears on court records as:
| Charged as | Share of bail records | Possible confinement | Fine | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| First-degree felony | 100% | 5 to 99 years or life in prison (TDCJ) | Fine up to $10,000 | Penal Code § 12.32 |
Ranges are the statutory maximums for the level; enhancements, prior convictions and plea agreements change what is actually imposed.
