He fights for and cares for all of his clients.

The Chronicle makes the following endorsements in criminal court races.

The 22 criminal district courts in Harris County process all felony charges against defendants 17 years or older or juveniles certified as adults.
On Monday the Chronicle endorsed candidates in eight races. In the remaining five contests we urge voters to support these candidates:

248th Criminal District Court: The Chronicle believes Democrat Jim Sullivan will bring years of trial experience as a defense attorney and a reformer’s zeal to the 248th. Sullivan, educated at Baylor University and South Texas College of Law, is a fluent Spanish speaker who has lived in Mexico and met his wife in that country. He says his familiarity with Latin American culture and language will give him an added sensitivity in the role of judge. Sullivan wants to focus on reducing jail overcrowding by increasing the granting of personal recognizance bonds for first-time nonviolent defendants and increasing the number of pretrial diversions. He also supports a fully funded public defender system. Sullivan says that these measures “will both save money and also increase justice for the indigent.”
