Re: Texas PE

The original document must be signed, sealed, and *transmitted*.  It may be followed by a facsimile of whatever sort, but there must be a real paper trail to the original, to the person distributing them.  One fuzzy area that is not explicit, but seems acceptable, is to fax a sealed addendum, correction, etc; but these should really be followed by a hard copy, too.

I've been away for a bit, and didn't get a chance to reply earlier. Does this mean that you cannot fax a sealed document? And for the prohibition, does it apply to sending the document or to the validity of the sent document?
