A new District Court will soon be created in Hays County following the passing of House Bill 3774, Rep. Erin Zwiener (D-Driftwood) announced Thursday.
HB 3774, the Office of Court Administration Omnibus Bill by Rep. Jeff Leach (R-Plano), awaits Gov. Greg Abbott’s signature.
“This new court will help ensure that caseloads are reasonable, the backlog of current cases is resolved, and help mitigate overcrowding of the county jail,” Zwiener said. “Thank you to Senator (Judith) Zaffirini, Hays County, and my colleagues for getting this over the finish line.”
