Section 30.05 Huh...?

[Abraham]

Anyone here know much about Section 30.05 such as: Is it still valid?

If so, what's it's purpose given Section 30.06 pretty much does the same job.

Anyone know the answer?

Thanks!

Yes, Texas PC § 30.05 is Criminal Trespass for all people and is still valid. TPC § 30.06 only covers trespass by a CHL while carrying.

Keith B ,

Until just this morning, I had no idea that Section 30.05 existed.

Thank you very much for the education.

You may not have known about 30.05 by section number but I hope you knew trespassing was a crime.
