Caption: Relating to the jurisdiction of the Texas Supreme Court and the Court of Criminal Appeals.
Initially Referred to Senate State Affairs Committee, chaired by a Republican
SB 1210 seeks to expand the jurisdiction of the Texas Supreme Court to resolve conflicts with the Court of Criminal Appeals concerning constitutional interpretations. It specifies that the Texas Supreme Court may address such conflicts, allowing it to issue rulings on certain criminal law matters when these issues intersect with constitutional interpretations, thereby redefining the appellate authority of both courts.
