Judicial Priorities
A conservative Republican, principled approach to justice
My Judicial Philosophy
As your County Court at Law No. 1 Judge, I will approach every case with a commitment to:
- Follow the law as written - not legislate from the bench
- Base decisions on legal precedent and facts - not personal opinions
- Protect constitutional rights for all who come before the court
- Ensure equal justice under law regardless of background or circumstances
