The Texas State Commission on Judicial Conduct (SCJC) will oppose a provision in a not-yet-filed bill in the state legislature that would open some of the SCJC’s confidential documents and meetings to the Sunset Advisory Commission, SCJC Executive Director Seana Willing told state senators.

During a Feb. 5 meeting of the Texas Senate Jurisprudence Committee, Willing reminded senators that this "became an issue" last year during the sunset review of the SCJC, an agency that investigates allegations of judicial misconduct and disciplines judges.
