HCCLA 2024 JUDICIAL BAR POLL

HCCLA Judicial Bar Poll RESULTS

Houston, Texas – February 19, 2023 – The Harris County Criminal Lawyers Association (HCCLA) recently conducted a judicial bar poll of the Association’s membership. This poll is an evaluation of the judiciary in all 16 Harris County Criminal Courts at Law and 26 Criminal District Courts.

The primary purpose of the judicial bar poll is to inform the public of Association members’ opinions about the judiciary serving in Harris County’s criminal courts. HCCLA members are criminal defense lawyers and familiar with the courts.

Murray Newman, HCCLA President, added “Unlike other polls in the Harris County legal community, this poll is by lawyers who actually practice in the criminal courts of Harris County, Texas.”

Results of the judicial bar poll should not be viewed as an endorsement by the Harris County Criminal Lawyers Association, which does not endorse or oppose candidates. The poll is not a scientific survey. It is a non-partisan poll by current members of the Association and has no bearing on the election. Use of the poll results for other purposes is not intended or encouraged.

The Harris County Criminal Lawyers Association does not endorse any judge or candidate for judicial office, and the results of the Judicial Bar Poll are not an endorsement by the Harris County Criminal Lawyers Association.

The Harris County Criminal Lawyers Association is one of the largest local criminal defense bars in the United States with more than 600 active members.
