2018 – 2019 FINAL STANDINGS for TRIALS
Show Me The Justice congratulates Defense Attorney TY WASHINGTON for earning the MOST misdemeanor dismissals for the month of July 2021! (Please note: the results are skewed higher for some attorneys because the DA’s office summarily dismissed hundreds of non-arrest and old cases in July represented by some of the below listed attorneys)
(Source: Harris County District Clerk’s Online Services – CrimDisposMonthly spreadsheet – dismissals when convicted of another charge or case refiled is usually excluded but the District Clerk’s website is not functioning as normal. Does not include attorneys whose names do not appear as attorney of record on clerk’s spreadsheet. Attorneys above are mostly court appointed. Sorry if I miss some female attorneys who show up under different names)
Great tips from the Harris County Court Reporters! I interviewed 12 of some of the best court reporters working the Harris County Criminal Courts and got their “inside information” on how jurors, lawyers, witnesses and judges can improve in trial to make it easier for the court reporter to take down ALL the information required of them for an excellent record.
