SB 997 restructures prosecutorial responsibilities within the 1st and 273rd Judicial Districts. It removes Sabine County from the jurisdiction of the district attorney for the 1st Judicial District, limiting that office's scope to San Augustine County. The bill then creates a new office of district attorney for the 273rd Judicial District, which will handle cases in Sabine County. The new district attorney position will be established for the 2028 election cycle, with the office officially taking effect on January 1, 2029.
