Relating to rules promulgated by the Texas Supreme Court.

SB 2005 amends Texas law to clarify that rules created by the Texas Supreme Court cannot interfere with elected or appointed officials performing duties authorized by the Texas Constitution or state statutes. The bill adds a new provision (subsection (c) to Government Code §22.003) stating court rules must not override an official's constitutionally or statutorily granted authority. This change directly affects how the Supreme Court develops procedural rules for Texas courts, ensuring those rules do not conflict with officials' existing duties. The law takes effect September 1, 2025.
