The Negatives of Denton County Criminal Cases

1. All felony court appearances are mandatory, for example.

2. Hearings may be required for early interlock removal and occupational drivers licenses (ODLs), both of which are important for DWI and license suspension cases.

3. Discovery is still paper heavy, instead of using more modern electronic discovery (e-discovery) practices. Physical discovery is still prominent. For example, one must drop off zip drives for video production (as opposed to simple downloads).

There are many newly elected judges in Denton County. This means that much is unpredictable, until patterns and knowledge of how each judge operates is established. However, the bar in Denton County is very friendly, helpful and accommodating.
