JOSEPH A. HALL: “I have never opposed Plano having a court. It is a huge city. It is a great city. It is a growing city. And as we move…”

On the recordNovember 19, 2003
I have never opposed Plano having a court. It is a huge city. It is a great city. It is a growing city. And as we move along with this 50-50 agreement and Plano grows, as it surely will, they will need more judges and more courts there. I certainly hope to help them. For several years, efforts have been made to hold court proceedings in Plano, Texas where they have had no court proceedings. I have no objection to such, and I only want to continue holding court in Sherman, Texas.
