EFFECT OF CRIMINAL CASE ON RICO LIEN NOTICE.
Text — Current through the 89th 2nd Called Legislative Session, 2025
If a civil action has not been brought by an investigative agency seeking a forfeiture of any property owned by the person named in the RICO lien notice, the acquittal in a criminal proceeding brought under Chapter 72, Penal Code, of the person named in the notice or the dismissal of the criminal proceeding terminates the notice and, in such case, the filing of the notice is void. If the criminal proceeding has been dismissed or the person named in the notice has been acquitted in the criminal proceeding, the notice continues for the duration of a civil action brought under Chapter 140B, Civil Practice and Remedies Code.
