New Jurisdiction

A bill urging creation OF a new
district court in Cameron and
Willacy counties, cutting these of
from the 18th judicial district, has
been sent TO Governor Moody foI
presentation at the special legisla-
ture now in session.
The bar association Of Cameron
county is backing the bill, which
would provide mechanicism for
handling the heavy docket here.
A outlined at a meeting OF the
Cameron county association Satur-
day morning. the bill calls for
division OF the present 28th Judi
cial district, now presided over BY
Judge A. w. Cunningham. Nueces
Kleberg. and Kennedy counties
would be retained in the 23 district
while Cameron and Willacy would
comprise an entirely new one.
1O3rd Not Affected
AS proposed. the new court would
have jurisdiction in both civil and
criminal cases, but would not af-
feet the l03rd district, the civil
court owe which Judge A. NJ. Kent

preference would be given to cri-
minal cases.
Creation OF the new court would
give Cameron four terms a year
and Willacy three. Each of these
counties has only two terms OF
criminal court a year under the
present arrangement.
To Start Next Year
Special provision IS made that
the bill shall not take effect until
Jan. 1. 1881. Should the district
be created. a judge and attorney
