Commissioners adopt formal CPS attorney fee schedule to document current payments
Summary
The court voted 5–0 to adopt a written fee schedule for CPS attorney payments, citing Texas Family Code guidance; county staff said the schedule formalizes existing practice rather than changing rates.
The Randall County Commissioners Court voted unanimously June 23 to adopt a written fee schedule for attorneys handling child-protective-services (CPS) matters. The staff member presenting the item—who said they are taking over CPS duties as the county's MAC director—told the court the schedule documents what the county already pays and provides transparency for attorneys and judges.
The presenter cited statutory guidance (including Texas Family Code section 107.015 and related cross-references) and said the schedule "reflects what is already being paid in CPS" and is not a substantive change. Commissioners asked whether the current budget could cover the schedule for the remainder of the fiscal year; staff responded it could. Commissioner Robinson moved to approve; the motion carried 5–0.
