Texas Supreme Court

Mid-Century Insurance Company of Texas and Texas Farmers Insurance Company, Petitioners v. Shefqet Ademaj, Respondent

November 30, 200751 Tex. Sup. Ct. J. 146

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court reversed the Court of Appeals and held that automobile insurers may recoup the statutory Authority fee under Article 21.35B without including the fee in their Article 5.101 rate filings, because the commissioner’s Rule 15 authorizes such collection; a concurrence agreed with the judgment but criticized the majority’s construction of Article 21.35B.
