The Professional Bondsmen of Texas Annual Meeting is Nov. 6-8, 2024


The PBT Annual Meeting is November 6-8, 2024.  One of the topics to be presented at this year's annual meeting will address the issues that come up when a bondsman is seeking to sell his business.  This topic will include issues related to how should the sale be addressed with the local bail bond board, or the sheriff.  Other issues will include such things the run off of the existing bonds still open that were written by the seller at the time of sale.

This topic should also include the topic of the things that you should discuss with your attorney if you are in the middle of estate planning.  Some suggestions that an estate planning attorney may propose are inconsistent with what is permissible for a bail bond company in Texas.  

If you are in thinking of selling your business or contemplating estate planning, joing us at the Annual Meeting of the Professional Bondsmen of Texas.  The meeting is November 6-8, 2024.

Harris County District Court Judge Stopped For Multiple Traffic Violations Including Driving On The Wrong Side of The Road

Image
  Before Harris County District Court Judge Kelli Johnson took at least a month off from work for personal matters following a crisis intervention call at her house, she was pulled over for multiple traffic violations and then volunteered to do a field sobriety test. ABC13 obtained a body-worn camera video of the encounter through an open records request. The Harris County Sheriff's Office explained that most of the video is black due to an "obstruction," but the audio is clear. Sgt. Colin McHugh made the initial stop. Johnson: "I'm a judge." McHugh: "You're a judge?" Johnson: "A criminal district judge. Yes."

Additionally, 445 voters did not show a valid form of photo identification and 48 mail ballots lacked required signatures or were not received before the deadline. More than a year after Pierce filed the election contest, the court ordered Jones to pay Pierce more than $65,000 in attorney fees, which Peeples said was reasonable given Jones’ motion to dismiss the case. “This court held that Jones’s motion to dismiss was without merit
