Docket roundup: multiple pleas accepted, dismissals signed and warrants issued in 187th District Court
Judge Stephanie Boyd handled a heavy docket that produced a mix of case outcomes: the court signed dismissals, accepted pleas and imposed several sentences, granted requests to withdraw as counsel, and issued court orders where defendants failed to appear.

Among the on‑the‑record case outcomes, the court signed a state motion to dismiss in the case of Matthew Moran for insufficient evidence and removed that matter from the jury trial list. The court also accepted the state’s dismissal for David Lopez for insufficient evidence.

Several defendants entered pleas and were sentenced under plea agreements. Miguel Angel Ramirez Galvan pleaded guilty to possession of a controlled substance (penalty group 1, less than 1 gram); the court accepted the plea and imposed 149 days in the Bexar County Jail under court rule 12.44 and a $800 fine. Marlon Vasquez pleaded guilty to possession of a controlled substance (penalty group 2, less than 1 gram); the court accepted the plea and sentenced him to 138 days in the Bexar County Jail and imposed a $1,000 fine.

Helidoreo (Dario) Willers entered a plea in a second‑degree felony case; the plea was accepted and the court set sentencing for Oct. 7. Vincent Arredondo reached a plea agreement the court accepted; the parties asked the court to sentence Arredondo to 200 days in the Bexar County Jail and to impose restitution and the court followed that agreement on the record.

On probation revocations and related proceedings, the court found the violation true in one motion to revoke and imposed sentence. Edgar Perez’s deferred adjudication was revoked; the court accepted a negotiated agreement and sentenced Perez to one year in a state jail facility. Renee Ortiz pleaded in a separate case, received a 4‑year prison sentence under a plea agreement, and in a related motion to revoke the judge found a violation true and sentenced the defendant to 8 years in prison on the revocation count.

Where defendants failed to appear, the state asked for bond forfeiture and the court issued judge’s warrants or ordered the defendant to remain without bond pending later proceedings. The court issued a judge’s warrant and ordered bond forfeiture for cases including Benito Vasquez and Darren Anthony Fish, and the court granted motions by defense counsel Kyle Simpson to withdraw from representation in multiple cases because he had accepted new employment.

The judge set plea‑deadline and jury‑trial dates in multiple matters and recorded discovery deadlines where the state agreed to produce additional materials. Several matters were reset for plea deadlines in October and November to allow defense counsel time to review newly produced discovery.

All outcomes were taken on‑the‑record; the court repeatedly reminded counsel that motions must be filed for the court to take up relief and that out‑of‑docket matters would be heard in the afternoon.
