Texas Agent Sentenced for Perjury in Workers’ Comp Case

Texas Mutual Insurance Company reported that an independent licensed insurance agent pled no contest to a charge of perjury in a workers’ compensation fraud-related case.

A Travis County district court sentenced Richard Brian Aube of Dallas to one year of deferred adjudication and ordered him to pay a $4,000 fine.

Texas Mutual said Aube presented false testimony on matters relating to one of his clients in February 2005. The insurer was investigating the client for misrepresenting payroll to get a lower workers’ comp premium.
