Julie Gonzalez, Judge
Each County Court at Law hears both civil and criminal cases. In civil cases, the court exercises concurrent jurisdiction with the District Courts.In
criminal cases, the court may hear all Class "A" and Class "B" misdemeanors
other than those involving official misconduct and cases in which the
highest fine that may be imposed is $500 or less. The Judge of the court
is also a member of the Council of Judges of El Paso and as such, takes part
in formulating the rules and regulations for the Courthouse and the administration
of justice in El Paso County by the district courts and the statutory
county courts.
