In Texas, a felon found in possession of a firearm can face serious legal consequences, typically classified as a third-degree felony. This can result in a prison sentence ranging from 2 to 10 years and potential fines up to $10,000. Additionally, prior convictions can influence the severity of the sentence. It is essential for individuals in this situation to seek legal counsel to navigate the complexities of firearm laws and potential defenses.
