Misdemeanor Trial Division
1800 N. Graves St., Ste. 200
McKinney, TX 75069
More than a dozen law enforcement agencies file between 500 - 1100 misdemeanor cases each month with our Intake Division. When misdemeanor cases are accepted for prosecution, they are randomly filed in each of the five County Courts at Law. The prosecutors assigned to a court by the District Attorney are responsible for the cases filed in that court.
The docketing of criminal cases occurs daily in every court. Prosecutors in the Misdemeanor Trial Division tried 353 jury trials in 2004, an all-time record, and disposed of more than 8,500 misdemeanor cases.
The Chief of this Division is responsible for all aspects of its operation, including the training and professional development of the trial attorneys and providing the education and experience they need on their road to becoming the best trial attorneys in Texas. The Division Chief also advises the District Attorney and the First Assistant on all matters relating to the Misdemeanor Division, including transfers, assignments, and promotions of misdemeanor prosecutors.
David Waddill is a chief felony prosecutor currently assigned as the Chief of the Misdemeanor Trial Division. He received his undergraduate degree from the University of Texas and his law degree from Texas Tech. Following law school, Mr. Waddill clerked for Chief Justice William Cornelius at the 6th District Court of Appeals and later joined the Collin County District Attorney's Office, where he has served for almost 18 years.
