The paired referral orders under which both Fannin courts with Title IV-D jurisdiction route child-support-agency cases to the regional associate judge: any aspect of a case under Family Code Title 5 or Chapter 45 in which the moving party is the Title IV-D agency — including ancillary matters — is referred to the Associate Judge for Title IV-D Cases appointed to serve the First Administrative Judicial Region, with the clerk recording the order in the court's minutes. The 336th's order was signed Jan. 26, 2016 (Judge Blake) and the County Court at Law's parallel order Jan. 20, 2016 (Judge Butler).
