Harris County Criminal Courts - Judicial Appointments on Commisioner's Court Agenda
According to the Harris County Commissioner's Court Agenda, the Commissioners were going to discuss the resignation of Reagan Helm of Harris County Court at Law Number 1 and appointing new Judges for Harris County Criminal Courts at Law 1 and 3. According to the agenda, the Commissioners were to meet yesterday (February 9, 2010) in Executive Session to discuss the Judicial Appointments for the vacant Harris County Criminal Courts.
Seems like a strange time for this in light of the upcoming primary election (less than 1 month from now). Anyone hear if they actually did appoint anyone to these benches or if they are waiting until a later time? My sources have told me who they thought the Harris County Commissioners were going to appoint, but I have not confirmed yet if they did appoint anyone.
