Asset Forfeiture
Texas
This course will cover the forfeiture of seized property. It has been developed to provide Texas peace officers with the knowledge and understanding of asset forfeiture laws as they pertain to legislative requirements, philosophy, definitions, defenses to forfeiture, issues regarding pre-seizure planning, search and methods of seizure, post-seizure procedures, forfeiture proceedings, and law updates pertaining to asset forfeiture. At the end of this course, the student will be able to demonstrate understanding of these areas to the level required by the Texas 77th in Senate Bill 563. The Occupations Code 1701.253 was amended by adding subsection (g), which directs TCOLE to establish a statewide training program on asset forfeiture. At the same time, 1701.402 was amended by adding subsection (d), which makes this training mandatory for any officer seeking an intermediate proficiency certificate. All Texas peace officers must complete this training prior to the second anniversary of their license.
