Offenses of General Applicability

Accessory is knowing that an offense has been committed, and receiving, relieving, comforting, or assisting the offender in order to hinder or prevent his apprehension, trial, or punishment. The penalty for accessory is provided in Section 13.1101 (1).

Attempt is attempting to commit any of the offenses named in this title, which attempt falls short of actual commission of the offense itself. The penalty for attempt is provided in Section 13.1101 (2).

Conspiracy is agreeing with one or more persons with intent to promote or facilitate the commission of an offense, that they, or one or more of them, will engage in or solicit the conduct or will cause or solicit the result specified by the definition of the offense and causing the commission, by himself or by a person with whom he conspired, of an overt act in furtherance of the conspiracy. If a person conspires to commit a number of offenses, he is guilty of only one conspiracy if the multiple offenses are the object of the same agreement or continuous conspiratorial relationship. It is an affirmative defense that the defendant, under circumstances showing a complete and voluntary renunciation of his criminal intent, made a reasonable effort to prevent the conduct or result which is the object of the conspiracy. The penalty for conspiracy is provided in Section 13.1101 (3).
