Is the 300% penalty provision you mention something you have seen substantiated by Texas statutes, or are you carrying over your knowledge of policies from another state and assuming it applies to your position? I ask because of the screenshot from one page of (upload://fcIHvZzdYeZ0wdDmjbVlgO4Gesz.png) a 2014 paper written by Judon Fambrough which seems to suggest that there is not a 300% penalty.
