The Fort Bend County District Attorney’s Office is seeking a prosecutor to appear at a morning magistrate court, effective July 1, 2023.
Applicants should be licensed attorneys in good standing. One year of job-related experience is required, with prior criminal law experience preferred.
Attorneys will be expected to appear at 6 a.m. at a daily morning magistrate docket to argue for bond conditions and make recommendations for release on bond. Work in the Intake Division is secondary to the magistrate docket and will be used to backfill available hours. There are two positions that alternate days covering the docket 7 days a week, including weekends and holidays.
