Bill > HB4892

This bill creates a new judicial district, specifically the 512th Judicial District, which will be located in Williamson County, Texas. The bill adds a new section to the Texas Government Code to establish this district, formally defining its geographic jurisdiction as encompassing Williamson County. The new judicial district will be officially created on the effective date of the Act, which is set for September 1, 2025. By creating this additional judicial district, the bill aims to potentially improve judicial efficiency and capacity in Williamson County by providing an extra court to handle legal cases within the county's jurisdiction. This type of legislative action is common when a growing county needs additional judicial resources to manage its increasing caseload.
