Texas Penal Code Practice

Committing a 3rd Degree Felony in Texas can result in a penalty of 2-10 years in jail. This is because a 3rd Degree Felony is one of the less serious categories of felony offenses in Texas, which are punishable by imprisonment and may also include a fine. Option A, 5-10 years in jail, and option B, life in prison, are incorrect as these penalties are reserved for more severe felonies. Option C, a $5,000 fine, is also incorrect as it is a typical misdemeanor penalty and not applicable to felony offenses. Therefore, option D, 2-10 years in jail, is the correct penalty for committing a 3rd Degree Felony in Texas.
