PRACTICAL
LEGAL TIP
Although
there
are
limited
exceptions provided in the Texas
Penal Code for airports, open
meetings of governmental entities,
hospitals, nursing facilities, and
amusement parks, it is generally
not a defense to prosecution that
the actor possessed a handgun
and was licensed to carry. In other
words, merely having an LTC will
not necessarily save you if you
violate Section 46.03, which
usually results in a third degree
felony offense! —Emily
