37 Tex. Admin. Code § 3.56 - Property Inventory Procedures

(a) Responsibility. Officers of the department occasionally assume responsibility for the property of citizens when those citizens are unable to care for that property. This responsibility may accrue to the personnel as a result of an arrest, voluntary abandonment by the rightful owner or others in control of the property, involuntary abandonment, or by seizure.

(b) Inventory required. All property which comes into the care, custody or control of an officer of the department will be inventoried as soon as practicable and a written record of the results of the inventory made on the prescribed form.

(c) Operational procedure. When it becomes necessary to assume the responsibility for property belonging to another, department officers will, as soon as practicable and without undue delay, inventory that property and record the results on the prescribed inventory form.
