The Eastern District of Texas faces challenges to its judicial infrastructure due to rapid population growth. The Sherman Division, which covers Collin County and others, is expected to grow from 2 million residents currently to 4.9 million in 25 years, increasing its share of the district's population from 51% to 67%. However, the division only has 2 full-time judges compared to 7 judges for the Dallas Division serving a similar population. Unless more judgeships are authorized, the Eastern District risks being unable to adequately serve its growing population.
