Thousands of residents in Hays County received an unexpected letter over the last week as the Constable offices across Hays County had to hand deliver jury summonses. The unique circumstance came up because of an “error by a Hays County vendor that has affected more than 6,000 jury notices throughout multiple county offices,” according to Hays County District Clerk Avrey Anderson Sr.
'It's an unfortunate situation due to the important nature of the cases that are currently on the dockets,' Anderson Sr. said. 'As a result, the constables hand-delivered the documents to multiple residences.'
A press release from Hays County did not clarify what error occurred, but Anderson later stated that the issue has been corrected moving forward.
