Yes. If you have a misdemeanor or felony conviction, it could enhance your punishment for this offense.

See Texas Penal Code 12.43 Sec. 12.43. PENALTIES FOR REPEAT AND HABITUAL MISDEMEANOR OFFENDERS.

Can I get my case dropped

Tristan Nicolas Legrande
Answered by attorney Tristan Nicolas Legrande

THe stop must be legal and the search must be legal. If they want to charge you with possessing something, that means they have to prove you intentionally and knowingly had care, custody, control or management of the illegal item. No lawyer will be able to predict if you can get your case dropped just from your question. But if thats what you want to happen, you're going to have to hire someone that has experience fighting possession cases. Read some reviews, do consultations, and hire someone you trust to defend you.  Good luck.
