Texas > Brazoria County > District Courts and County Courts at Law
Signed January 2023 by the nine district and county-court-at-law judges. The order governs the viewing of criminal-history record information by defense counsel in pending Brazoria County criminal cases — permitting review under stated safeguards (viewing without copying/dissemination, consistent with Tex. Gov't Code ch. 411 restrictions on CHRI) — so that discovery obligations under Article 39.14 C.C.P. can be met while the statutory confidentiality of criminal-history records is preserved.
