SUMMARY STATEMENT FOR THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS SYSTEM

References:

Civil Practice and Remedies Code, Chapter 101

State of Texas General Appropriations Act,
Article V. Section 5S

GENERAL LIABILITY

It is the stated policy of the State of Texas not to acquire commercial general liability insurance for
torts committed by employees of the State who are acting within the scope of their employment.
Rather, Chapter 101 of the Civil Practice and Remedies Code states that "a governmental unit in the
state is liable for

1) property damage, personal injury, and death proximately caused by the wrongful act or omission
or negligence of an employee acting within his scope of employment, if:
a) the property damage, personal injury, or death arises from the operation or use of a motor -driven
vehicle or motor -driven equipment; and

b) the employee would be personally liable to the claimant according to Texas law: and
2) personal injury and death so caused by a condition or use of tangible personal or real property if
the governmental unit would, where it a private person, be liable to the claimant according to Texas
law.

Liability of the state government under this chapter is limited to money damages in a maximum
amount of $250, 000 for each person and $ 500,000 for each single occurrence for bodily injury or
death and $100, 000 for each single occurrence for injury to or destruction of property.
Section 101 of the Code applies to actions against governmental units of the state and does not

directly provide coverage for individuals as named defendants. However, a judgment under this
section may prohibit further action against an employee.
One exception to the above stated policy of the state authorizes agencies and institutions of the state
to acquire commercial automobile insurance for the use and benefit of its employees who operate
state owned, motorized vehicles and special equipment.

WORKER' S COMPENSATION

Employees of The University of Texas System are provided Worker's Compensation coverage under a
self -insuring, self-managed program as authorized by V.A.C. S., Article 8309d, State of Texas.
