When a corporation or association is convicted, who can the court require the corporation or association to notify?

• A. The Texas Attorney General.
• B. The District Attorney
• C. Any person the court deems appropriate
• D. The Public Defender

Answer: (C)

When a corporation or association is convicted, the court has broad discretion to decide who must be notified. This rule is about making sure those who have an interest in or are affected by the conviction—such as victims, creditors, employees, or other stakeholders—are informed so they can take appropriate actions or respond as needed. Because of that flexibility, the court can require notice to any person it deems appropriate. The options involving specific offices like the Texas Attorney General or District Attorney, or a Public Defender, aren’t automatically required in every corporate conviction; they are not the sole or universal recipients unless the court specifically deems it appropriate.
