NEPOTISM LAW
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.
FOOTNOTES

Election Code.
