Relating to the prosecution of the offense of fraudulent use or possession of credit card or debit card information.
SB 807 changes where credit card fraud cases can be prosecuted in Texas. It allows prosecutors to file such cases in either the county where the fraud occurred or the county where the victim resides. The bill specifically applies to offenses under Section 32.315 of the Penal Code (fraudulent use or possession of credit/debit card information). This procedural change takes effect September 1, 2025, and only applies to cases filed on or after that date. The bill does not create new crimes or penalties, only modifies jurisdiction rules for existing offenses.
