Pecos Court Faces Pressure to Remain In Region
Federal Judge D W Suttle urged Pecos Rotarians to keep the Pecos division of the federal court, saying it serves litigants, jurors, and lawyers from Reeves County to the New Mexico line. He cited cross-border drug activity via an unmanned border and emphasized community oversight to prevent removal or manipulation of the court. He reviewed Pecos division history, noting it was created in 1912 and has hosted several judges, with current staffing ready since July 26, 1976.
