Due to the broken water main near East Loop 610, the Harris County Engineering Department has ordered that all county courts be closed tomorrow, Friday February 28.
Additionally, jury service has been cancelled for tomorrow and the District Clerk’s Office will be closed.
Just a gentle reminder to my FB followers: Please DO NOT leave messages detailing cases or hinting to a case that may or may not be in the 311th. Doing the above, is considered an ex parte communication, and could lead to me having to recuse myself from the case.
Being fair and impartial, requires hearing both sides and making decisions based on the law and the evidence presented. Hopefully, everyone understands.
Have a wonderful weekend!!
