"The new law makes crossing the Texas-Mexico border between ports of entry a Class B misdemeanor. If a migrant agrees to return to Mexico, a judge can drop the charges. Otherwise, a suspected offender faces a potential six-month jail sentence — with longer sentences for repeat offenders.
Abbott signed the law Dec. 18 and it’s slated to take effect March 5."
Resolution will be based on information in publicly available media reporting by market close.

It's 'YES' if by market close there are media reports that someone has been held in jail for any length of time in violation of SB4 and having refused the option to be released into Mexico.
They don't have to be held in jail on Mar 31st...just by Mar 31st.
