Court minutes reading law as directive not mandatory
A San Antonio note argues that the statute requiring daily reading of prior minutes in open court is directory rather than mandatory. It says courts often skip the practice due to crowded dockets, with potential errors like Beeler’s sentence and Merle’s liberty cited. The piece urges strict observance to uphold justice and public trust, warning against technicalities that erode law. It ends with a commercial advertisement for pianos by TITOS GOGGAN & BRO.
