Harris County Commissioners Court is asked to approve returning $49,568 in unused juror pay card funds to the general fund.
Harris County Commissioners Court is being asked to approve accepting $49,568.00 back into the county's general fund. The money comes from juror pay cards issued in February 2026 that were never used. Texas law requires unredeemed juror pay card balances to be returned to the county after 90 days. File 26-4112 was introduced June 18, 2026, and is scheduled for the July 9, 2026 Commissioners Court meeting.
Harris County jurors who served in February 2026 and never used their pay cards let $49,568 sit unclaimed. Texas law says that money returns to the county after 90 days. This vote decides whether the county officially takes it back.
