WHAT SETS YOU APART FROM YOUR OPPONENT?
I have the experience and legal background in the jurisdiction of the Justice of Peace Precinct #1, which my opponent lacks. The Texas Justice Court training Center recognized the efficiency of my court and my grasp of the law and asked that I teach other JPs across the state of Texas in their mandatory training. I have taught in their last two seminars.
RELEVANT EXPERIENCE THAT QUALIFIES YOU FOR THE POSITION YOU SEEK:
I have twenty two years as a practicing attorney and have three years experience in this position. My record reflects that I have a proven commitment to the court and residents. We have eliminated the backlog of cases, reduced truancy filings, obtained over a 100% closure rate, all with less than a .003 % appeal rate.
DESCRIBE A MOMENT THAT CHANGED YOUR LIFE:
Getting married to my wonderful wife and the birth of our children.
