The district judges' Notice of Administrative Transfer Policy (Gov't Code §§24.003 and 74.094): conflict-based cases are administratively transferred and randomly reassigned by the local administrative district judge (or assigned by the district clerk on filing) away from the court with the conflict — covering specified law firms appearing as lead counsel or counsel of record, the District Attorney's office (away from the 429th), USAF-Reserve-unit parties tied to the 366th's presiding judge, and family-relationship counsel conflicts.
Texas > Collin County > the district courts — the published conflict-transfer policy referenced by the Local Rules of Administration §3.1; it routes conflicted matters away from the affected court and randomly reassigns them (the specific firm/party/judge conflicts are the policy's own current list, subject to update by the district judges)
PURPOSE: "For the efficient operation of the Collin County district courts, the promotion of public confidence in the integrity and impartiality of the judiciary, and the effective administration of justice," the district judges adopt this policy on local administrative transfers under Tex. Gov't Code §§24.003 and 74.094. MECHANISM: "The following cases will be administratively transferred and randomly reassigned by the local administrative district judge, or assigned accordingly by the district clerk upon filing" — i.e., these categories are routed away from the court that has the conflict and randomly reassigned among the other district courts. CONFLICT CATEGORIES (as published): cases where an attorney from the McCathern PLLC or Albin Oldner PLLC firms appears as lead counsel are transferred from the 296th District Court; cases where any party is assigned to the 301st Fighter Wing, USAF Reserves (or any USAF Reserve unit to which the presiding judge is assigned) are transferred from the 366th District Court; cases in which the Collin County District Attorney's office appears are transferred from the 429th District Court; cases in which Thomas Wynne or Michael C. Wynne appear as counsel of record are transferred from the 468th District Court; and cases where an attorney from the McCraw Law Group or McCraw Gantt, PLLC appears as counsel of record are transferred from the 469th District Court. BASIS: the policy implements the Local Rules of Administration's random-assignment carve-out for conflict-based administrative transfers and is published on the district courts' website as that rule requires.
