Honesty. Intelligence. Legal ability and experience. Freedom from bias. Judicial temperament. Diligence and dedication. Courtesy. Judge Ursula A. Hall has demonstrated excellence in each and every one of these traits; she is well qualified to serve as a state trial judge.
Ursula’s intelligence and hard work are unquestionable. She is a graduate of local, public magnet schools for the academically gifted and talented, Wellesley College and South Texas College of Law. She was a student champion in the trial-related activities of debate, moot court and mock trial. Ursula possesses the range of virtues that comprise intellectual integrity: honesty, courage, fairness, sensitivity, perceptiveness and insightfulness. It is this keen integrity, developed in childhood and honed by both her father Anthony W. Hall, Jr., and mother, Carolyn Middleton Hall, that makes Ursula stand out among lawyers and judges. Her time on the municipal bench has shown that she also possesses humility, perseverance, adaptability and communicativeness. Ursula has an exceptional judicial demeanor and is remarkably courteous, as hundreds of citizens who have come before her, and many court staff, will attest.
Her legal ability and experience are unparalleled in this race – unlike her primary opponents, Ursula has served as a Judge for nearly five years. She is a twice-reappointed Associate Municipal Judge with the City of Houston. As you well know, the number one job of a judge is to adjudicate — Ursula has adjudicated thousands of cases, and presided over trials, in our municipal court system. She has practiced law, as a sole practitioner, for the last thirteen years. She is licensed to practice before the United States Supreme Court and the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals; and has tried cases and argued appeals on the state and federal levels. Her unending diligence and dedication are consistently admirable.
Finally, Ursula comes from a long line of socially, civically and politically involved citizens. She registered her first voter when she was about nine years old, alongside her grandfather, J.E. “Jimmy” Middleton, legendary advocate for union workers. Her dedicated volunteer work reflects personal excellence, public service and the simple value of sharing she learned from her grandmothers, scholar and community organizer Quintanna Hall Alliniece, and Winnie Middleton, long-time supporter of youth and organizations serving the young.
