“By design, the governor has fantastic candidates to serve in those roles,” said Murr who represents District 53. “And everyone in this room has an expectation that as long as those judges are doing their jobs, that they will be subject to reappointment.”With the Texas Business Court dealing with major companies, which could be past or present political donors, NBC 5 asked how state leaders would prevent the appearance of conflicts of interest in the court’s decisions.
