Make the “WRIGHT” Choice on Tuesday, November 6, 2018 in the race for Judge, Harris County, Texas Probate Court # 1 Dear Harris County Voters:
In 2010 and again in 2014, I had the honor and privilege of being elected Judge of Harris County Probate Court No. 1, one of the busiest probate courts in the country. As I near the end of my second term, it continues to be the most rewarding experience of my career. As an attorney with over 27 years experience in probate, trust guardianship, estate planning, and elder law, I developed a reputation for handling the matters entrusted to me with diligence and integrity. I often represented executors, administrators, trustees, guardians, and beneficiaries in complex probate proceedings, and recovered millions of dollars in assets lost through fraud and breach of fiduciary duty. Over the years, I was also appointed by the probate

judges to handle both contested and uncontested estate and guardianship matters. The experience I garnered over the last thirty-five years has served me well on the bench. Prior to coming to the bench, I was licensed to practice in all Courts in the State of Texas, the United States District Court (Southern District), the United States Court of Appeals (5th Circuit), and the United States Tax Court. I also served two terms as a member of the District 4A grievance committee (which disciplines attorneys) and served as Chair in 1994. I am a member of the State Bar of Texas Real Estate, Probate and Trust Section, Taxation Section and Litigation Section and the Houston Bar Association Probate, Trusts and Estate Section, Taxation Section and Litigation Section. I also belong to the Houston Business and Estate Planning Council and the Houston Estate and Financial Forum. I am also a member of the Disability and Elder Law Attorneys Association and Attorneys in Tax and Probate. I received my JD from the University of Houston in 1981, and a BBA (1977 accounting) and MBA (1980 - accounting/taxation) from the University of Texas. I am grateful for the opportunity to continue to earn your trust and support as Judge of County Probate Court No. 1.

DON’T FORGET THAT EVERY VOTE WILL MATTER ON TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 6TH IN HARRIS COUNTY ANALYSIS BY AUBREY R. TAYLOR
T
here’s a lot of talk about a “BLUEWAVE” floating around. But conservatives from all across Texas believe you should get prepared for a “REDSTORM.” And, according to published information, they’ve earned the right to be confident about thier 2018 Midterm Election chances. In case you don’t know, Republicans hold every statewide elected office and majorities in the state senate, state house and on the state board of education. And they also hold majorities in 107 Texas counties that contain nearly two-thirds of the state’s population. But on Tuesday, November 6, 2018, the day when Democratic hopefuls and Republican hopefuls are set to face off, nothing should be taken for granted.
EARLY VOTING PERIOD:
The early voting period will begin on Monday, October 22, 2018, and end on Friday, November 2, 2018 in the State of Texas.
ELECTION DAY VOTING:
If you can’t vote early for some reason, you can still cast your vote on Tuesday, November 6, 2018 in the State of Texas
