Meet with author to amend. Reid's review: There is a notice requirement for these sales in Texas Rule of Civil Procedure 647: The time and place of sale of real estate ... shall be ... published ... three consecutive weeks ...in newspaper. 

This bill gives commissioners courts authority to set rules for online auctions and might pose a threat to public notice. Have author add a provision that this bill does not trump the requirements of Rule 647.

Companion is HB 1382 by Ana Hernandez. 3/21 met with Hernandez chief of staff - bill does not affect public notice.
