NO TRIAL VERDICTS TO REPORT

IMPORTANT NOTICE – The district clerk’s website has been displaying INCOMPLETE INFORMATION since November 19, 2020. The Online Dockets tab and the Criminal Disposed Cases tab (from which I gather my blog information) are BOTH providing only PARTIAL DATA. I have submitted a work order for them to fix the problem, but to no avail. I apologize if I missed any information from those dates – including trials.

 

 

 

The following cases are felony and misdemeanor trial setting dismissals derived from the Harris County District Clerk’s website – online services > public data sets > crimdisposdaily. (2 work days later) I examine each dismissal form before posting, post only those defendants who are free of charges (exceptions apply) and for which I have an attorney photo. ric court dismissals are posted only if legal issues were cited.
