Meeting Judge Ruben Guerrero
I had the pleasure of meeting Ruben Guerrero who was recently elected judge of the 174th District Court of Harris County. Judge Guerrero previously presided over the 263rd District Court of Harris County. I was not a lawyer when he was a judge, but every attorney that I have spoken to about him holds him in high regards and are eager to see him back on the bench.
I found out that reason Judge Guerrero has not been much at the Harris County Criminal Center is because he sits as a visitng judge often. I have been impressed how accessible he has been since he won the election. I have seen in various courts observing the attorneys and speaking with them to get their input. I envision a smooth transition from Judge George Godwin, who is retiring from the bench, to Judge Guerrero.
