Tex. Penal Code § 15.02 (2005)
§ 15.02. Criminal Conspiracy(a) A person commits criminal conspiracy if, with intent that a felony be committed:
(1) he agrees with one or more persons that they or one or more of them
engage in conduct that would constitute the offense; and
(2) he or one or more of them performs an overt act in pursuance of the
agreement.
(b) An agreement constituting a conspiracy may be inferred from acts of the parties.
(c) It is no defense to prosecution for criminal conspiracy that:
(1) one or more of the coconspirators is not criminally responsible for
the object offense;
(2) one or more of the coconspirators has been acquitted, so long as
two or more coconspirators have not been acquitted;
(3) one or more of the coconspirators has not been prosecuted or
convicted, has been convicted of a different offense, or is immune from
prosecution;
(4) the actor belongs to a class of persons that by definition of the
object offense is legally incapable of committing the object offense in
an individual capacity; or
(5) the object offense was actually committed.
(d) An offense under this section is one category lower than the most serious felony that is the object of the conspiracy, and if the most serious felony that is the object of the conspiracy is a state jail felony, the offense is a Class A misdemeanor.
