Monday’s hearing was supposed to decide whether the commissioner could get 90,000 records of juveniles in the juvenile detention center. Judge Eric Moye did not rule on that Monday because of another investigation taking place.
Dallas County Commissioner Andrew Sommerman has sued the county juvenile department to get access to tens of thousands of juvenile records called ‘observation sheets.’
"The Texas Juvenile Justice Department ought to be able to proceed unfettered at least for a definite period of time," Moye said. "That takes precedent certainly over anything the commissioners court is doing especially because, in my view, they have very limited powers," said Brian Hail, juvenile department attorney. "I think they're frustrated by that, but they have very limited powers in this regard."Legal battle ensues between Dallas County commissioner, juvenile dept. director over legal records
"Because we don't know what exactly the OID is looking for yet, there's a potential that they do ask for the same records. In which case, it could actually help everyone," said Jennifer Richards, who is representing Dallas County Commissioners Court.
