⚖️ Texas Law — Charge Details
Up to 1 year jail + $4,000 fine
Assault Causing Bodily Injury against a family member under Texas Penal Code § 22.01 is a Class A Misdemeanor punishable by up to one year in county jail and a $4,000 fine. Texas law defines 'family member' broadly to include current or former spouses, parents, children, dating partners, and household members. A second conviction for family violence assault is elevated to a third-degree felony (2–10 years prison). Those charged often face an emergency protective order (EPO) prohibiting contact with the alleged victim. A conviction creates a federal firearms disability under the Lautenberg Amendment.
