However, the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure allows for a judge to place conditions on a defendant's community supervision. One of those statutory conditions is that the judge may require a defendant placed on community supervision to serve up to 180 days as a condition of his community supervision.
Therefore, if a defendant receives community supervision from the jury, the most jail time he can serve is 180 days.
I have a brain sucker dyin' of starvation. I saw red, when first reading of this sentencing commitment, and quarked on past- fully recognizing the terms of conditions. I now see the point of your prior post. Thanks for being kind...This case must have some extremely mitigating circumstances.
