J. Christian Becerra
Fort Bend 434th District Court
The court, in plain English
Texas district courts are the trial courts of general jurisdiction. In Fort Bend County they hear felony criminal cases, civil lawsuits, divorce and other family-law matters, and juvenile cases.
Why this seat matters
This is the court that decides the most serious cases in the county — prison sentences, who your children live with, and civil disputes that can decide a family’s finances.
