Dear Friends, 

I AM A CANDIDATE FOR THE 179TH CRIMINAL DISTRICT COURT IN NOV. 2016

FAST FORWARD TO SEP 2015.  I was the Judge of the 179th District Criminal Court of Harris County from 2009 to 2012.  I had inherited the worst docket of the 22 Criminal Courts.  It had nearly 1100 active criminal cases.  We reduced the docket to the 300s through hard work.  We did this by taking only 8 days vacation in 4 years and by working longer hours than every other court. We had nearly the 3rd best active case docket out of 22 courts.  And, we started at the worst position number of # 22.

Here are some highlights of my qualifications:

• 20 years in criminal law with extensive trial experience in over 4500 criminal cases.
