Full text
(a) A judge of the municipal court, in addition to imposing a fine, may institute proceedings to suspend or revoke the license of a person if:
(1) the person is required, by law or by a municipal ordinance adopted under a law, to obtain the license from the municipality for an occupation, business, or avocation; and
(2) the judge finds the person guilty of violating a municipal ordinance relating to the occupation, business, or avocation or finds that the person has been convicted of barratry under Section 38.12, Penal Code.
(b) For the purpose of this section, a person is convicted of barratry if a court of competent jurisdiction enters an adjudication of guilt against the person regardless of whether:
(1) the sentence is subsequently probated and the person is discharged from probation;
(2) the accusation, complaint, information, or indictment is dismissed following probation; or
(3) the person is pardoned for the offense, unless the pardon is granted expressly for subsequent proof of innocence.
