LEGISLATIVE BUDGET BOARD Austin, Texas FISCAL NOTE, 82ND LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION May 16, 2011 TO: Honorable Tommy Williams, Chair, Senate Committee on Transportation & Homeland Security FROM: John S O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board IN RE:HB3423 by Lozano (Relating to certain criminal offenses committed in relation to a federal special investigator; providing criminal penalties.), As Engrossed No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated. The bill would amend the Penal Code to expand the conditions for which the false report to peace officer or law enforcement employee provisions apply, including making a false statement to a federal special investigator. The bill would expand the conditions for which the evading arrest or detention provisions apply, including fleeing from a federal special investigator. The bill would also expand the conditions for which the taking or attempting to take a weapon from certain officials apply, including taking or attempting to take a weapon from a federal special investigator. The bill would take effect September 1, 2011. Expanding the list of behaviors for which a penalty is applied for any criminal offense is expected to result in increased demands upon the correctional resources of counties or of the State due to longer terms of probation, or longer terms of confinement in county jail, state jail or prison. However, for this analysis, it is assumed that the number of offenders convicted under this statute would not result in a significant impact on the programs and workload of state corrections agencies or on the demand for resources and services of those agencies. Local Government Impact No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated. Source Agencies: LBB Staff: JOB, KJG, GG, ADM
