Rather than being defined in the Penal Code, it is probably dicta.jamisjockey wrote:I'm trying to find it in the Penal code and cannot.

I don't know of a Penal Code definition, therefore it is interpreted according to common usage. As Wildbill said, there could well be case law on point.jamisjockey wrote:I'm trying to find it in the Penal code and cannot.

Thanks.
Re: Where is "control" defined?
If it adds any insight to it, the word is used in the definition of possession. 
PC Sec. 1.07 a (39) "Possession" means actual care, custody, control, or management.
