County Court 2 is unique in that it handles Civil, Criminal, Family, and Juvenile cases. Being an effective Judge requires having a thorough knowledge in all areas of the law and the experience and ability to apply it impartially in a variety of situations. It also takes having the work ethic to expedite the handling of cases so that justice can be served. My 30 years of legal experience and track record as a Judge prove that I am up to the task.

As Judge of County Court 2, I have dealt firmly with juvenile crime, DWI, child support, and victim's rights. My commitment to better protect your neighborhood from all crime has included particular attention to the increasing number of juvenile cases facing the courts today. When possible, I have stressed rehabilitation programs for both juveniles and adults--however, repeat offenders find little sympathy in County Court 2.

It is my job to see to it that justice is served. In doing so, both the victims of crime and the accused find their rights are respected--as justice requires and the law intended. My work ethic and ability to be fair and impartial has earned me the respect and endorsement of an overwhelming majority of attorneys, from all sides to the docket, who practice in the courts of Galveston County."
