Judge Otis Dunagan Faces Billie Sol Estes Trial Monday
Dist. Judge Otis T. Dunagan who will oversee the Billie Sol Estes theft trial Monday rose from modest roots during the Depression and educated himself at night. He has led Texas judges with tough dockets since 1942, presiding on venue changes and notable cases including 1955 political scandal fallout and the 1960 NAACP injunction. Dunagan, admitted to the bar in 1935, also helped craft the state driving license law and voting rights provisions.
