Terms Used In Texas Alcoholic Beverage Code 201.11

  • Commission: means the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission. See Texas Alcoholic Beverage Code 1.04
  • Equitable: Pertaining to civil suits in "equity" rather than in "law." In English legal history, the courts of "law" could order the payment of damages and could afford no other remedy. See damages. A separate court of "equity" could order someone to do something or to cease to do something. See, e.g., injunction. In American jurisprudence, the federal courts have both legal and equitable power, but the distinction is still an important one. For example, a trial by jury is normally available in "law" cases but not in "equity" cases. Source: U.S. Courts
  • Liquor: means any alcoholic beverage, other than a malt beverage, containing alcohol in excess of five percent by volume, unless otherwise indicated. See Texas Alcoholic Beverage Code 1.04
  • Rule: includes regulation. See Texas Government Code 311.005

The commission shall provide by rule for the equitable and final disposition of tax refunds or credits when liquor tax is overpaid or paid by mistake. It shall prescribe the time and manner for filing claims for credits and refunds and provide appropriate forms.
