Brooks Pushes For 2 New Harris Criminal Courts
State Senator Chet Brooks of Pasadena introduces a bill creating two new Harris County criminal district courts, the 233rd and 23rd, to reduce case backlogs. Coauthored by Barbara Jordan and Jim Wallace the measure aims to shorten time from indictment to trial amid rising felony indictments. Brooks ties the need to possible bond denial reforms and cites 13,000 felony indictments in 1970 versus 7,800 in 1969.
