What “PROH SUB CORR/CIV COM FACIL-ATTEMPT” means
This charge is an attempt version of the prohibited-substances offense in Texas Penal Code § 38.11, which forbids providing, possessing with intent to provide, taking into a facility, or possessing while confined certain items — alcoholic beverages, controlled substances, dangerous drugs, deadly weapons, and cell phones or other wireless communications devices and their components — in connection with a correctional facility or civil commitment facility. Under the general attempt statute, Texas Penal Code § 15.01, the State must prove the person acted with specific intent to commit the completed § 38.11 offense and did an act amounting to more than mere preparation that tended but failed to effect its commission. Subsection 38.11(h), cited in the court record, is the provision addressing attempts, grading an attempted § 38.11 offense at the same felony level as the completed crime rather than one level lower.
| Charged as | Share of bail records | Possible confinement | Fine | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Third-degree felony | 100% | 2 to 10 years in prison (TDCJ) | Fine up to $10,000 | Penal Code § 12.34 |
