Title
Proclamation - Municipal Court Week.
Body
Summary: The week of November 5 - November 9, 2018 has been designated by the Texas Legislature as Municipal Court Week to recognize and show appreciation for the dedicated municipal judges, court clerks, court administrators, prosecutors, bailiffs, and warrant officers who comprise the Texas municipal court system. Municipal Court Week is an opportunity to not only recognize the work of the municipal court staff, but to also share with the public the important role of municipal courts in the criminal justice system and the community. During Municipal Court Week, the City's Court staff has available a sticker activity book, and a coloring book (available in English and Spanish) and box of colors to help children learn more about "A Day in Municipal Court." The staff also sets up a small refreshment table, which encourages questions and conversation to educate the community about the work of the Municipal Court.
