SAN ANTONIO — The 187th District Court heard a large criminal docket during the afternoon session, accepting pleas, deferring findings of guilt in several cases and imposing sentences in others.
Key outcomes recorded on the docket included:
- Luis Javier Okuda (listed as Luis Javier Bura in the transcript): the court found the defendant guilty and sentenced him to 2 years in state prison with credit for time served; the court entered an affirmative finding of deadly conduct/serious bodily injury and ordered restitution and no-contact conditions with the victims.
- Jimmy Montalvo Jr.: the court accepted a plea and sentenced him to 2 years in the state jail facility, suspended and probated for 5 years, with regular reporting, random UAs, proof of employment, parenting classes (completion to waive community service hours) and other standard supervision conditions.
- David Romero Jr.: the court accepted a negotiated plea, deferred a finding of guilt and placed the defendant on community supervision (sentence terms included a TAP evaluation, random UAs, field visits, 100 hours of community service/restoration and no unsupervised contact with minors).
- Ruben Maldonado Jr.: the court accepted the defendant's plea, deferred a finding of guilt, and followed the parties' agreement recommending deferred adjudication with conditions including reporting, community service and random testing (state recommended a three-year term in the agreement before the court).
- Daniel Morales: the court deferred a finding of guilt on the defendant's application for deferred adjudication after the state presented exhibits; court set conditions to be contained in the deferred adjudication order.
- Jessica Rodriguez: court accepted the application for deferred adjudication; the state had recommended a term of community supervision and the court deferred a finding of guilt pending completion of conditions (the parties noted parenting, no Market Square attendance and employment conditions among recommended terms).
- Gus Gallegos: the court accepted negotiated pleas in two cause numbers and sentenced the defendant to 1 year in the Bexar County Jail under section 12.44, to run concurrent across the cases.
Other matters on the docket were set for future dates: several cases were recalled or continued for discovery or because counsel was unavailable, and a number of defendants were directed to appear again for updates on veterans' treatment court referrals, mental-health evaluations or to permit probation and state notifications.
