HB 1469 amends the Government Code to clarify and expand the jurisdiction of the County Court at Law in Bowie County. It establishes concurrent jurisdiction with district courts for specialty programs, family law cases, and probate matters while excluding jurisdiction over felonies, contested elections, and certain high-value civil cases. It also adjusts jury size requirements and outlines case transfer procedures between county and district courts​.
