Justice of Peace Seeks Night Clerk for Bevtown Jail
Justice of Peace Waller Queen asked Harris County Commissioners Court to authorize hiring a second night clerk at Bevtown jail to improve public service. A study found gaps when no clerk is on duty during some nights and weekends, hindering bondmen from posting. Queen proposes a $365 monthly addition to cover extended weekday hours and weekend coverage. Three clerks currently work in Queen's office with varied shifts.
