In this episode, we are talking about the two highest courts in Texas – the Supreme Court, which handles civil stuff, and the Court of Criminal Appeals, which handles how people with criminal records are handled. I wasn’t able to coordinate interviews with anyone due to, you know, everything going on, but just stick with me for this short episode and we’ll take a look at these courts and why it is so important that you vote in them.
