Judge Cosper will be missed...
The recent Democratic landslide in Harris County, Texas claimed many fine judges and I am sure it will be ushering many fine ones as well, but in my opinion Judge Caprice Cosper will be missed the most. She is widely regarded as the fairest judge at the felony level by both sides of the bar. Every attorney knows that she would listen to their argument before reaching her decision. No matter what type of legal question arises she is the first looking up the answer even if she knows the answer before she starts looking. She even goes the next step and shares with you the pertinent law or case that applies.
She will be missed most by the defendants in her court that are truly trying to overcome their drug addictions. Judge Cosper's wants every one of her probationers to succeed. She understands the fighting addiction is difficult and encourages them to continue battling their demons despite the odds against them. My hope is that newly elected Judge of the 339th District Court, Judge Maria Jackson, seeks her guidance when dealing with this issue so that she can be as influential in a defendant's life.
I am a victim in a case that is in Judge Jackson's Court. I am dissappointed that she keeps resetting and has not given a trial date. From the history she has set very few trial dates, and I am beginning to feel that I will never get justice.
Yeah you are right she lets most criminals out with probation. She is weak.
