Sec. 23.011. ACTION BY LICENSING AUTHORITY. (a) On receipt of a final order suspending a license, the licensing authority shall immediately determine if the authority has issued a license to the person named on the order and, if a license has been issued: (1) record the suspension of the license in the licensing authority's records; (2) report the suspension as appropriate; and (3) demand surrender of the suspended license if required by law for other cases in which a license is suspended. (b) A licensing authority shall implement the terms of a final order suspending a license without additional review or hearing. The authority may provide notice as appropriate to the license holder or to others concerned with the license. (c) A licensing authority may not modify, remand, reverse, vacate, or stay an order suspending a license issued under this chapter and may not review, vacate, or reconsider the terms of a final order suspending a license. (d) A person who is the subject of a final order suspending a license is not entitled to a refund for any fee or deposit paid to the licensing authority. (e) A person who continues to engage in the licensed activity after the implementation of the order suspending a license by the licensing authority is liable for the same civil and criminal penalties provided for engaging in the licensed activity without a license or while a license is suspended that apply to any other license holder of that licensing authority. (f) A licensing authority is exempt from liability to a license holder for any act authorized under this chapter performed by the authority. (g) Except as provided by this chapter, an order suspending a license or dismissing a petition for the suspension of a license does not affect the power of a licensing authority to grant, deny, suspend, revoke, terminate, or renew a license. (h) The denial or suspension of a driver's license under this chapter is governed by this chapter and not by Subtitle B, Title 7, Transportation Code.
