Relating to the jurisdiction of the 2nd Multicounty Court at Law and the composition of the juvenile boards of Bee, Live Oak, and McMullen Counties.
SB 1260 amends Texas law to expand the jurisdiction of the 2nd Multicounty Court at Law for certain civil cases and changes the composition of juvenile boards in three counties. It adds the judge of the 2nd Multicounty Court at Law to the juvenile boards of Bee, Live Oak, and McMullen Counties, alongside county judges and district judges. The bill clarifies that the court has concurrent jurisdiction with district courts in specified civil cases (excluding those exceeding $50,000), and the changes apply only to cases filed on or after the bill's effective date. It does not alter existing juvenile services or case procedures but adjusts administrative oversight structures for these counties.
