The judge misused his position and the prestige of judicial office when he sent a letter on his official judicial letterhead to another court, asking for help with his bailiff’s speeding ticket.  The judge also failed to comply with the law when he issued a citation in an eviction matter which failed to comply with Rule 510.4 of the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure.  [Violation of Canons 2A and 2B of the Texas Code of Judicial Conduct.]  Private Warning and Order of Additional Education of a Justice of the Peace.  07/17/17.
