AUBREY R. TAYLOR REPORTS©
According to a recent Facebook I ran across that was sponsored by Judge Brad Hart, the presiding judge over the 230th District Court in Harris County, Texas, defense attorneys will now be granted 24-hour access to the DA Portal. I’m not exactly sure what all this means, but I’m sure that many of my attorney friends will know the significance of this announcement.
HERE’S THE MESSAGE I RAN ACROSS ON FACEBOOK THAT WAS PUBLISHED BY JUDGE BRAD HART THE OTHER DAY:
MESSAGE FROM JUDGE BRAD HART: “For the Defense Bar: There have been several complaints by the defense bar and by judges about defense attorneys not being able to see evidence in the DA portal because the clerk’s office has not attached the attorney yet or the DAO has not recognized the attachment yet. I am told this has been especially problematic in County Court. Thanks to the always good work of Gary Zallar and the IT people at the DAO, as of this past Thursday, 8/9/18, prosecutors have the ability grant temporary access to the DA portal to attorneys hired on or appointed to cases. The Technology Committee was given a demonstration and it seemed to work pretty well. If an attorney is hired or appointed on the case but has not been attached by the clerk’s office yet the attorney can ask the prosecutor to give them the temporary access. The prosecutor can pull up the case in their system, enter the attorney’s bar or spn number and add the attorney for temporary access. I believe the access lasts for 24 hours which should be enough time for the attorney to be actually attached in JIMS. If after 24 hours and still not attached I suggest getting with the clerk of the court to make sure they have entered the attachment. At the time this was being demonstrated to us by the DAO tech people the prosecutors had not been informed of this ability. Hopefully, they have been by now.”

Nope, we are looking at an election turnout of epic proportions in my opinion -- a serious fight for territory.

So, I’m imploring every open-minded Texans to pray for our “PUBLIC SERVANTS” and to “FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT” by becoming more actively engaged, mobilized and involved in the process of electing "DULY-QUALIFIED" candidates who value, respect, and appreciate our vote, prayers, and support at the ballot box.

Judge Jackson is one of the Top Democrats on the 2018 Democratic Statewide Ticket says Aubrey R. Taylor, publisher of Houston Business Connections Magazine©
One of the top statewide Democratic candidates on Tuesday, November 6, 2018, Midterm Election ballot in Texas, Judge Maria T. Jackson should garner votes from non-straight ticket voters from both major political parties, independents and Libertarians too in my opinion. In case you don’t already know, only two Democratic candidates received more statewide votes than Judge Maria T. Jackson back in the Tuesday, March 6, 2018, Democratic Primary. The #1 statewide Democratic vote-getter was Justin Nelson (888,444) who is running for Attorney General. The #2 statewide Democratic vote-getter was Kim Olson (883,575) who is running for Agriculture Commissioner. And our very own Judge Maria T. Jackson (878,581) was the #3 statewide vote-getter back in the Tuesday, March 6, 2018, Democratic Party Primary in Texas. So, if you're out there looking for a candidate who is experienced, fair, and ready to administer blind-fold justice in cases brought before the highest court for criminal appeals in the State of Texas – look no further than Judge Maria T. Jackson on Tuesday, November 6, 2018.
I'm expecting for Judge Michelle Slaughter to roll to victory over her Libertarian Party challenger on Tuesday, November 6, 2018. After all, she's already faced her toughest challenge, which was to win the Republican nomination. And she did so in good-fashion over two worthy fellow Republicans back in the Tuesday, March 6, 2018, Republican Party Primary. So, as a refresher, Judge Michelle Slaughter received more votes than both her Republican Party Primary opponents combined by garnering 669,949 statewide votes, while Jay Brandon received 389,753 statewide votes, and Dib Waldrip received 208,179 statewide votes respectively. Again, I'm expecting for Judge Michelle Slaughter to handily defeat Mark Ash, her Libertarian challenger. So, if you're out there looking for a constitutional conservative judge and originalist who has presided over thousands of felony criminal cases and well over a hundred felony criminal jury trials ranging from state-jail felonies to capital murder cases you should look no further than Judge Michelle Slaughter – 2018 Candidate for Judge, Texas Court of Criminal Appeals, Place 8 on Tuesday, November 6, 2018, in the Lone Star State.

So don’t forget that it’s imperative that you cast your vote for “DULY-QUALIFIED CANDIDATES” who value, respect, appreciate and ask for your vote.
Attorney DaSean Jones is one of only a handful of African American male judicial candidates to make the Tuesday, November 6, 2018, Midterm Election ballot in Harris County, Texas. In case you don't know, Jones is seeking to unseat Republican incumbent Judge Catherine Evans in what’s expected to be a very tight race.
CLOSING THOUGHTS
Whether you’re a Democrat hoping for a “BLUEWAVE” to flow through Harris County, Texas, or a “REPUBLICAN” looking for a “REDSTORM” to blow through town you had better not take anything for granted in the 2018 Midterm Election whereas Harris County, Texas is concerned. And with that said, I am imploring all my loyal readers to tell all of your family, friends, associates, and passers-by about the importance of every vote in what I’m expecting to be one of the most important elections of our lifetime. And please don’t forget that early voting will begin on Monday, October 22, 2018, and end on Friday, November 2, 2018. Finally, while I’m encouraging you to vote early if for some reason you can’t, you can still cast your vote on Tuesday, November 6, 2018.
