For the second time this year, the State Commission on Judicial Conduct (SCJC) has issued a public reprimand for former Judge Franklin Bynum of Harris County, this time for making false statements about an administrative court judge and Supreme Court of Texas Justice Nathan Hecht.
In August, the SCJC issued a public reprimand for Bynum, who formerly served as the presiding judge over a Harris County misdemeanor court, for his refusal to follow state law and behavior demonstrating bias against the state and victims of domestic violence.
