Reviewer notes

Unofficial host. Public.Law is an independent private publisher, not the Texas Legislature; the official citation is Tex. Ins. Code Sec. 1811.051. Fetched 2026-08-31 and read subsections (a) and (b) verbatim along with the history note. The official page at https://statutes.capitol.texas.gov/Docs/IN/htm/IN.1811.htm was retested on 2026-08-31 and returned only site navigation rather than statutory text, which is why this reproduction is cited. primary is set to false because this is a secondary reproduction of primary law.
