HB 3513 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to the composition, duties, and personnel of the Moore County Juvenile Board.

HB 3513 amends Texas law to change the composition and terms of Moore County's Juvenile Board. The board will now include the county judge, the County Court at Law judge, and 3-5 members appointed by the Commissioners Court (previously fixed at six members), with appointed members serving two-year terms expiring December 31 of even-numbered years. The bill also explicitly removes Moore County's Juvenile Board from certain other state code provisions (Sections 152.0002-152.0008) that apply to other counties. This bill took effect September 1, 2025, after being signed by the Governor on May 24, 2025.

MINOR

The bill text was reformatted from a draft version to the final enrolled version, with no substantive policy changes. The core provisions regarding the Moore County Juvenile Board's composition, term lengths, and applicable sections remain identical. The only meaningful change is the addition of certification signatures and dates confirming the bill was passed by both chambers and approved by the Governor.

TECHNICAL
