Legal Question in Sexual Harassment in Texas

if someone reaches up a woman's skirt and gropes her private parts...Is that a crime? This happened to my wife at work and her boss sent the guy home for the night with no disciplinary action. Needless to say, I am quite inclined to raise holy hell both in the civil and legal arenas if she has standing to do so.

Any response is greatly appreciated. Thanks and Godspeed.

It's a crime. It's also a tort. You can sue the bastard.
