INSTRUCTIONS
An application to have the name of a candidate placed on the ballot for any election may not be filed earlier than 30 days before the deadline
prescribed by this code for filing the application. An application filed before that day is void.
The filing deadline is 5:00 p.m. 71 days prior to the election day if the election is held in May or November of an odd -numbered year, except in cases
where the law specifies the contrary.
The filing deadline is 5:00 p.m. 78 days prior to the election day if the election is held in November of an even -numbered year.
The candidate must sign this statement indicating his awareness of the nepotism law. The nepotism prohibitions of chapter 573, Government Code,
are summarized below:
No officer may appoint, or vote for or confirm the appointment or employment of any person related within the second degree by affinity (marriage)
or the third degree by consanguinity (blood) to himself, or to any other member of the governing body or court on which he serves when the
compensation of that person is to be paid out of public funds or fees of office. However, nothing in the law prevents the appointment, voting for, or
confirmation of anyone who has been continuously employed in the office or employment for the following period prior to the election or
appointment of the officer or member related to the employee in the prohibited degree: six months, if the officer or member is elected at the general
election for state and county officers.
No candidate may take action to influence an employee of the office to which the candidate is seeking election or an employee or officer of the
governmental body to which the candidate is seeking election regarding the appointment or employment of a person related to the candidate in a
prohibited degree as noted above. This prohibition does not apply to a candidate's actions with respect to a bona fide class or category of employees
or prospective employees.
Examples of relatives within the third degree of consanguinity are as follows:
(1) First degree: parent, child;
(2) Second degree: brother, sister, grandparent, grandchild;
(3) Third degree: great-grandparent, great-grandchild, uncle, aunt, nephew, niece.
These include relatives by blood, half-blood, and legal adoption.
Examples of relatives within the second degree of affinity are as follows:
(1) First degree: spouse, spouse's parent, son-in-law, daughter-in-law;
(2) Second degree: brother's spouse, sister's spouse, spouse's brother, spouse's sister, spouse's grandparent.
Persons related by affinity (marriage) include spouses of relatives by consanguinity, and, if married, the spouse and the spouse's relatives by
consanguinity. These examples are not all inclusive.
