Voluntary conduct

Sec. 1. (a) A person commits an offense only if he voluntarily

only if he has a statutory, common law, or contractual duty to
perform the act.
(b) If possession of property constitutes any part of the prohibited
conduct, it is a defense that the person who possessed the property
was not aware of his possession for a time sufficient for him to have
terminated his possession.
