THE BOBBLE HEAD CAPER

Prosecutor Simone Colson had a difficult time cracking the defendant on the stand as to whether or not she committed the offense of Breaking the Bobble Head.  After a grueling cross-examination the defendant was steadfast in her denial, cunningly evasive with her answers, offered an alternate means of destruction and opined that there were no eyewitnesses.  After a stern denial the evidence was insufficient to prove she broke the bobble head.  The precious little defendant is Logan – Simone’s daughter – and FUTURE lawyer.

The Court Reporter has one of the most difficult jobs in the courthouse. Imagine having to listen to EVERY single word in a trial and transcribing it! My hats-off to you! I will try to feature a court reporter each week and offer their tips on how we can make their job a little easier

Rachel Cochran has been a court reporter since 2013. She spent 5 years as the court reporter for the 313th juvenile court before becoming the court reporter in January for County Criminal Court at Law Number 4 – judge Shannon Baldwin presiding.

COURT REPORTER TIP –

“My day would go a lot smoother if…..”

Lawyers would remember that we have a microphone attached at the bench in order to hear your bench conversations.  Please be careful when passing papers or other items to the judge!  If those papers or items HITS the microphone the amplified sound hurts our ears.  Thank you!

JUDGE OF THE 339th DISTRICT COURT TO STEP DOWN SEPTEMBER 30th

“Maria T. Jackson, the longest-serving felony court judge in Harris County, said Friday she would resign from the bench.

Jackson made her announcement at a meeting of the Houston Bar Association. She confirmed her resignation, which she said will be effective Sept. 30, in a brief interview with the Houston Chronicle.” By Zach Despart
