Members of the Cen-Tex Bar Association honor America each year by reading the Declaration of Independence on the steps of the Limestone County Courthouse.

This year, in addition to Limestone County, Texas Criminal Defense Lawyers Association members will branch out to surrounding counties and hold readings across the State as well. It is part of an effort by the Texas Criminal Defense Lawyers Association to organize readings in all 254 Texas counties this year.

On Friday June 30th at 9:00 a.m., local lawyer and municipal judge Michelle Latray of Groesbeck will appear inside the foyer of the Limestone County Courthouse for this special event.
