Interim Judge’s Seat Vacated by Lawsuit

Fort Bend County’s interim judge Daniel Wong is facing a legal identity crisis—his temporary role vanished when the civil case that legitimized his appointment was dismissed, leaving him without legal authority to preside over county meetings. While some officials push for him to step down, Wong and his team insist he’s still in charge, setting the stage for potential courtroom showdowns before November’s election. Legal experts confirm he’s now just a regular citizen, not a judge, and Commissioner Grady Prestage will lead meetings until a new interim is appointed by the commissioners.
