Personal note from Judge Jones
Welcome. I appreciate the chance to visit with you here and encourage you to come back often. 
I ask for your vote and your help in my re-election to continue serving the counties of Burnet, Blanco, Llano and San Saba as judge of the 33rd District Court -- there, that's out of the way -- now why should you vote for me? The details are outlined below, but the short version is . . .
Toughness --Integrity -- Leadership -- Experience
You'll see Toughness in my willingness to make the hard calls and in exacting accountability. I have demonstrated Integrity in this office through consistent fairness and a steady judicial temperament. Experience comes from my service on the bench of the 33rd District Court since 1997, and before that, as an Attorney-at-Law, Certified Public Accountant, and U.S. Naval Officer. And as you explore these pages further, you will see I have demonstrated Leadership in implementing innovative programs and bringing new services to the citizens, attorneys, and litigants of this judicial district.
Every day on the bench is a new "mini-project" which I welcome, where the rules of law and life's complexities challenge us, as a society, to fairly and equitably impose the concepts of Accountability and Justice. I truly appreciate the privilege of serving you.

Creation of permanent judicial commission on children, youth and families
Wed, 09/26/2007 - 19:55 — gil.jonesIt was my honor this past Tuesday to testify before the Texas Supreme Court in support of an initiative to create a permanent judicial commission on children, youth and families. A recent press release explaining this important initiative is repeated below, and if you wish to view some of the testimony, it may be found at http://stmarytxlaw.mediasite.com/stmarytx/Catalog/. Scroll down to the link described as "Public Hearing on the Children's Commission" and the entire four + hours of testimony is available. If you wish to view my testimony, use the mediaplayer slider bar to move forward to minute 276 (on some browsers it will be shown as 4:36:19) -- almost to the end -- (the minutes are shown to the right of the player area).
