SB 2921 Texas Senate · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to the applicability of sex offender registration requirements to the offense of indecent assault.

SB 2921 amends Texas law to require sex offender registration for individuals convicted of a **second violation of indecent assault** (Penal Code Section 22.012), excluding cases with deferred adjudication. It adds this offense to the list of "reportable convictions" under the sex offender registration statute. The bill directly affects people convicted of repeat indecent assault, making registration mandatory upon conviction for a second offense. This change clarifies that registration applies to second offenses but not when the second violation results in a deferred adjudication. The bill is currently in the Criminal Justice committee for review.
