SECTION 105.25
Conspiracy; jurisdiction and venue
Penal (PEN) CHAPTER 40, PART 3, TITLE G, ARTICLE 105
§ 105.25 Conspiracy; jurisdiction and venue.

1. A person may be prosecuted for conspiracy in the county in which he
entered into such conspiracy or in any county in which an overt act in
furtherance thereof was committed.

2. An agreement made within this state to engage in or cause the
performance of conduct in another jurisdiction is punishable herein as a
conspiracy only when such conduct would constitute a crime both under
the laws of this state if performed herein and under the laws of the
other jurisdiction if performed therein.

3. An agreement made in another jurisdiction to engage in or cause the
performance of conduct within this state, which would constitute a crime
herein, is punishable herein only when an overt act in furtherance of
such conspiracy is committed within this state. Under such
circumstances, it is no defense to a prosecution for conspiracy that the
conduct which is the objective of the conspiracy would not constitute a
crime under the laws of the other jurisdiction if performed therein.
