Art. 62.058. LAW ENFORCEMENT VERIFICATION OF REGISTRATION
INFORMATION. (a) A person subject to registration under this
chapter who has for a sexually violent offense been convicted two or
more times, received an order of deferred adjudication two or more
times, or been convicted and received an order of deferred
adjudication shall report to the local law enforcement authority
designated as the person's primary registration authority by the
department not less than once in each 90-day period following the
date the person first registered under this chapter to verify the
information in the registration form maintained by the authority
for that person. A person subject to registration under this
chapter who is not subject to the 90-day reporting requirement
described by this subsection shall report to the local law
enforcement authority designated as the person's primary
registration authority by the department once each year not earlier
than the 30th day before and not later than the 30th day after the
anniversary of the person's date of birth to verify the information
in the registration form maintained by the authority for that
person. For purposes of this subsection, a person complies with a
requirement that the person register within a 90-day period
following a date if the person registers at any time on or after the
83rd day following that date but before the 98th day after that
date.
(b) A local law enforcement authority designated as a
person's primary registration authority by the department may
direct the person to report to the authority to verify the
information in the registration form maintained by the authority
for that person. The authority may direct the person to report
under this subsection once in each 90-day period following the date
the person first registered under this chapter, if the person is
required to report not less than once in each 90-day period under
Subsection (a) or once in each year not earlier than the 30th day
before and not later than the 30th day after the anniversary of the
person's date of birth, if the person is required to report once
each year under Subsection (a). A local law enforcement authority
may not direct a person to report to the authority under this
subsection if the person is required to report under Subsection (a)
and is in compliance with the reporting requirements of that
subsection.
(c) A local law enforcement authority with whom a person
reports under this article shall require the person to produce
proof of the person's identity and residence before the authority
gives the registration form to the person for verification. If the
information in the registration form is complete and accurate, the
person shall verify registration by signing the form. If the
information is not complete or not accurate, the person shall make
any necessary additions or corrections before signing the form.
(d) A local law enforcement authority designated as a
person's primary registration authority by the department may at
any time mail a nonforwardable verification form to the last
reported address of the person. Not later than the 21st day after
receipt of a verification form under this subsection, the person
shall:
(1) indicate on the form whether the person still resides at
the last reported address and, if not, provide on the form the
person's new address;
(2) complete any other information required by the form;
(3) sign the form; and
(4) return the form to the authority.
(e) For purposes of this article, a person receives multiple
convictions or orders of deferred adjudication regardless of
whether:
(1) the judgments or orders are entered on different dates;
or
(2) the offenses for which the person was convicted or
placed on deferred adjudication arose out of different criminal
transactions.
