Carl Ceder will tell you that Texas laws about drug crimes are confusing. The Texas Health and Safety Code, who governs the possession laws, divides controlled substances into five major penalty groups, with an additional category for marijuana. While some of these substances are legal, it is illegal to possess them without a prescription. The classification of these criminal offenses and punishments range based on the drug charges depends on the penalty group in which the particular controlled substance is included and the amount of controlled substance at issue.
