The Texas Health and Safety Code defines cemetery status by burial plots in land and restricts land use unless courts change status or remove nuisance. Living relatives have no ownership rights to ancestors' plots but may visit decorate and protect graves. Theft or intentional disturbance of graves is a felony, while vandalism and tampering with cemetery items carry misdemeanor classifications.
