Just as municipal courts occupy a unique niche in the Texas judicial system, Municipal Courts and the Texas Judicial System fills a unique niche in terms of the public’s understanding of the courts with which most Texans come into contact. Derived from the TMCEC Municipal Judges Book, this new book has been oriented for the broader municipal court community. It critically analyzes the nature of municipal courts and the judge’s role in the Texas criminal justice system. The content has been thoroughly updated through the 87th Session of the Texas Legislature and features a new chapter on Trials and Appeals.
