16 Tex. Admin. Code § 401.159 - Summary Suspension of License
(a) In
addition to the authority to suspend a sales agent's license pursuant to §
401.158 of this title (relating to
Suspension or Revocation of License), the director of the Lottery Operations
division may suspend a sales agent's license subject to the limited notice and
hearing procedures established under other rules to be adopted by the
commission under this title for that purpose, if the director finds that the
action is necessary to maintain the integrity, security, honesty, or fairness
of the operation or administration of the lottery or to prevent financial loss
to the state, and:
(1) licensee fails to
deposit money received from ticket sales under the State Lottery Act;
(2) an event occurs that would render the
sales agent ineligible for a license under §
401.153(b) of
this title (relating to Qualifications for License);
(3) licensee fails to notify the commission
of any change in the information contained in the sales agent's most recent
application for a license or renewal of a license within ten days of the date
of the change;
(4) the director of
the Lottery Operations division discovers the licensee has failed to disclose
information that would, if disclosed, render the licensee ineligible for a
license under §
401.153(b) of
this title.
(b) A
summary suspension properly commenced under rules adopted by the commission
under this title is effective at the time the notice is served. If notice is
personally served, the licensee shall immediately surrender the license to the
commission or its representative. If notice is served by mail, the licensee
shall immediately return the license to the commission. In addition, at the
time the licensee is served with notice under this subsection, the licensee may
be required by the director of the Lottery Operations Division to surrender
upon demand to an authorized representative of the commission all commission
property and commission vendor property, return all unsold tickets in
accordance with normal commission policy, pay funds owed to the commission by
an authorized method, and take such further action as required by the
director.
