Relating to changing the eligibility of certain persons to receive community supervision, including deferred adjudication community supervision.

SB 552 amends Texas law to explicitly disqualify individuals classified as "illegal aliens" from receiving community supervision, including deferred adjudication. It defines "illegal alien" as someone who entered the U.S. without inspection or failed to maintain nonimmigrant status. The bill adds this as a new eligibility barrier in multiple sections of the Code of Criminal Procedure (e.g., Article 42A.053(c), 42A.056, 42A.102(b), and 42A.551). This change directly affects non-citizens convicted of crimes who meet the defined "illegal alien" criteria. The law applies only to offenses committed on or after the bill’s effective date.
