A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
AN ACT
relating to judicial review of a Texas Workforce Commission
decision in an unemployment compensation proceeding.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:
SECTION 1. Section 212.201(a), Labor Code, is amended to
read as follows:
(a) A party aggrieved by a final decision of the commission
may obtain judicial review of the decision by bringing an action in
a county court at law or district court [of competent jurisdiction]
for review of the decision against the commission on or after the
date on which the decision is final, and not later than the 14th day
after that date.
SECTION 2. The change in law made by this Act applies only
to judicial review of a Texas Workforce Commission decision that
becomes final on or after the effective date of this Act. Judicial
review of a Texas Workforce Commission decision that becomes final
before the effective date of this Act is governed by the law in
effect immediately before the effective date of this Act, and the
former law is continued in effect for that purpose.
SECTION 3. This Act takes effect September 1, 2025.
