Relating to the jurisdiction and operation of the County Court at Law in Atascosa County.

It grants the court concurrent authority with district courts to handle Class A/B misdemeanor cases, family law, juvenile matters, probate, appeals from lower courts, and civil cases under $1 million (excluding certain damages). The bill also adds a new provision (c-1) allowing County Court judges to be assigned to district court matters in Atascosa County. This law applies only to cases filed after its effective date (91 days post-session), leaving pre-existing cases governed by prior law.
