AUSTIN, Texas — Many home and business owners across Texas are still cleaning up damage from the winter storms that pummeled the state last week. And at least one local courthouse is among the places dealing with the aftermath.
The Travis County Courthouse, located on West Eleventh Street in Downtown Austin, experienced broken pipes, damaged ceilings and flooded floors. But a civil court judge told KVUE courthouse staff didn't miss a beat because they were already working remotely due to the COVID-19 pandemic, so work wasn't interrupted.
