The answer is in the Texas Health and Safety Code, Section 481.115(d). Possession of methamphetamine (a Penalty Group 1 substance) is a second degree felony. The Texas Penal Code, Section 12.33 says punishment for a second degree felony ranges from 2-20 years in prison and a fine of not more than $10,000. However, under the Penal Code, Section 12.42, a second conviction is "enhanced" by a previous conviction. If the previous conviction was also a second degree felony, then the second conviction is eligible to be enhanced to a first degree felony which ranges in punishment from 5-99 years in prison and a fine of not more than $10,000.
