Sec. 61.02. NATURE OF LICENSE; SUCCESSION ON DEATH, BANKRUPTCY, ETC. (a) A license issued under this code is a purely personal privilege and is subject to revocation as provided in this code. It is not property, is not subject to execution, does not pass by descent or distribution, and ceases on the death of the holder.
(b) On the death of the licensee or of a person having an interest in the license, or on bankruptcy, receivership, or partnership dissolution, the receiver or successor in interest may apply to the county judge of the county where the licensed premises are located for certification that he is the receiver or successor in interest. On certification, unless good cause for refusal is shown, the commission or administrator shall grant permission, by letter or otherwise, for the receiver or successor in interest to operate the business during the unexpired portion of the license. The license may not be renewed, but the receiver or successor in interest may apply for an original license. A receiver or successor in interest operating for the unexpired portion of the license is subject to the provisions of this code relating to the suspension or cancellation of a license.
