COVERAGE OF 49 CRIMINAL COURTS – Harris County, Texas
I am a 41-year veteran criminal defense lawyer – and I created this website to acknowledge the excellent efforts of my colleagues who work at the Harris County Criminal Justice Center in Houston, Texas.
I publish trial verdicts, in-trial pleas and dismissals, felony dismissals, trial setting dismissals, trial standings, judge standings, lawyer statistics, lawyer standings, photos and other court news and nuggets.
“My goal is to shine a light on the fine prosecutors, defense attorneys and other courthouse personnel who serve the interest of justice in our community. Our work is the last line of defense for those who will lose their freedom or become free. Thanks to all for your fine work!”
