Sixth Court Marks 100 Years
The Texarkana Gazette has published this nice article on the 100th anniversary of the Sixth Court of Appeals. The article quotes Chief Justice Josh R. Morriss III as saying that the intermediate appellate courts "are the final deciders of well above 90 percent of [all] cases." The Texas Supreme Court gets most of the press coverage, but we need to pause and remind ourselves that it's not the only forum in which justice is meted out. Though often overlooked, the 14 intermediate courts play a critical role.
