SUMMARY Pursuant to Human Resources Code section 63.017(a), the Harris County Commissioners Court may purchase or lease ajuvenile detention facility in another county. The Harris County District Attorney may not use asset forfeiture funds to help purchase the juvenile detention facility for the county, because providing a juvenile detention facility is not an official purpose of that office under Code of Criminal Procedure article 59.06(c)(1) and is therefore not an authorized use of those funds. Very truly yours, GRE ABBOTT AttorneyGeneral of Texas KENT C. SULLIVAN First Assistant Attorney General ANDREW WEBER Deputy Attorney General for Legal Counsel NANCY S.
