House Bill 1952 amends the Alcoholic Beverage Code to authorize the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission (TABC), after notice and hearing, to cancel or suspend the TABC's approval of an alcoholic beverage seller training program, the TABC's certification of a trainer to teach such a program, or the TABC's certification of a seller-server if the program, trainer, or seller-server violates the Alcoholic Beverage Code or a TABC rule. The bill authorizes the TABC to give a program, trainer, or seller-server the opportunity to pay a civil penalty rather than be subject to suspension and makes specified provisions relating to the hearing or appeal of a cancellation or suspension of a permit applicable to the program approval or certification as if that approval or certification were a license or permit under the Alcoholic Beverage Code.
