INDECENCY WITH A CHILD
Depending on the allegations made by the victim, the State can prosecute this type of case as either a Second or Third Degree Felony.
There are significant differences between them. If the State contends that the Defendant had physical contact with the child a jury would be limited to assessing prison time only. If the State alleges that the violation was by exposure, a jury would have the option to recommend Community Supervision.
In either type of case, registration as a Sex Offender is required. However, as a Third Degree Felony, the time period is 10 years from the completion of Community Supervision or release from prison. A Second Degree Felony requires sex registration for life.
As a Houston Criminal Attorney, I have had extensive experience with these types of cases. I promise I will vigorously defend you. I will give you an honest appraisal as to the merits of your case. If required, I will utilize other experts to form a team defense. You can be assured you will receive the best of representation.
