Felony Assault
In certain circumstances, assault charges can be escalated to felony-level. These circumstances, known as “aggravating factors,” can include assaulting a family member, a known public servant, an emergency services worker, or an individual of another protected profession, or using a deadly weapon to conduct the assault.
In these instances, the assault charges are promoted to a felony, which means you could face between two and ten years in Texas state prison, plus a fine not to exceed $10,000 as well as additional penalties for having a permanent felony record.
The penalties for felony assault crimes are as follows:
- Third degree felony: Up to 10 years in prison, fine of up to $10,000
- Second degree felony: 2 to 20 years in prison, fine of up to $10,000.
- First degree felony: 5 years to life in prison and a fine.
