Trespass by license holder with a concealed handgun is which class?

• A. Class C Misdemeanor
• B. Class B Misdemeanor
• C. Class A Misdemeanor
• D. State Jail Felony

Answer: (A)

The key idea is that there is a specific trespass offense for license holders who carry a concealed handgun. When someone with a license to carry concealed enters or remains on someone else’s property after being told that concealed carry is not allowed, and they are carrying the handgun concealed, they commit trespass by a license holder with a concealed handgun. That offense is classified as a Class C misdemeanor, which is why this option is correct. It’s a smaller offense (finable up to about $500) and activated specifically by the CHL holder’s concealed carry in a prohibited area, rather than a more serious misdemeanor or a felony. The situation differs from general trespass because the CHL-specific prohibition and notice requirements place it under 30.06, not under the more general trespass statute.
