Issue: Webb County Justices of the Peace Courts provide truancy court for juveniles referred to their Courts by school districts for violation of compulsory state attendance laws.  The Justices of the Peace require the presence of school district Attendance Officers in order to enforce these school compulsory attendance laws.  These Attendance Officers, who assist the Justices of the Peace in providing court coordination of the truancy court docket, require their services be compensated (salary). 
 
Solution: UISD and Webb County each pay ½ the salaries of Attendance Officers acting as Justice Court Coordinators overseeing the truancy court docket.

Webb County has been paying half the salaries to UISD Attendance Officers providing court coordination services in the Justice Courts.
