Texas Attorney General Opinion
Under article 102.0121 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, the commissioners court, not the prosecuting attorney, ultimately determines the authorized uses of the county pretrial intervention program fund. The statute authorizes the commissioners court to use the pretrial intervention fund for an employee's salary, salary supplement, or a benefit only to the extent the use of the fund is solely for the administration of the program.
