Come On in, the Water's Fine

I welcome my friends at Orgain Bell and Tucker LLP to the Texas Ninth Court of Appeals part of the blogosphere with their new blog, Navigating the Ninth, which I have put on our Link List, and wish them luck in helping to keep people informed about an important and neglected part of the Texas court system. The Ninth Court of Appeals covers ten counties:

• Hardin
• Jasper
• Jefferson- county seat Beaumont, where the Ninth Court of Appeals has its offices, courtrooms, and chambers- Jefferson is the second largest county in the Supreme Judicial District and is the primary home of Orgain Bell and Tucker LLP.
• Liberty
• Montgomery- county seat Conroe, the largest county in the Supreme Judicial District where I live and practice
• Newton
• Orange
• Polk
• San Jacinto
• Tyler

Our Montgomery County out here continues to be one of the fastest growing parts of the U.S. and Jefferson County, the main location for Orgain Bell and Tucker, is an absolutely key area for the petrochemical industry and for maritime trade.

We're proud of what we do here, and our reporting about candidates for the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals and about the Ninth Court of Appeals in Beaumont show that we are covering things that are otherwise hard to find. Please let the American Bar Association know you like what we do here.

This Blog Is Not Moving!

My new web people tell me that what we ought to do is keep this blog here, so that's what we'll do. Sorry about the confusion.
