Tex. Alcoh. Bev. Code Section 11.70
Liability of Surety

(a)

If a permittee or a person having an interest in a permit is finally convicted of the violation of a provision of this code or of a rule or regulation of the commission, or if a permit is cancelled by the commission and no appeal is pending, the commission may institute action in its own name, for the benefit of the state, on the bond supporting the permit. If the cancellation or conviction is proved, the court shall render judgment in favor of the commission for all fines, costs, and 15 percent of the face value of the bond.

(b)

If a permittee fails to seasonably remit any money due the state, the surety on his bond is liable for the amount of money due the state plus a penalty of 15 percent of the face value of the bond.

(c)

A suit for the collection of any of the amounts specified in this section shall be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in Travis County.

(d)

Nothing in this code shall be construed as imposing on a surety a greater liability than the total amount of the bond less any portion of the bond which has been extinguished by a prior recovery.
Acts 1977, 65th Leg., p. 413, ch. 194, Sec. 1, eff. Sept. 1, 1977.
