Judge Tim Wright of Georgetown will appear in federal court this afternoon to plead guilty to two federal criminal charges alleging that he sold guns without a license and lied to federal investigators about it.
Wright, judge of the Williamson County Court-at-Law No. 2, pleaded not guilty to nine charges in the April 7 indictment in his case. But the government on May 27 filed a superseding information that charged the judge with one count of engaging in business of dealing firearms without a license and one count of false statement to government agents. Both charges are felonies that could each bring up to five years in prison and up to a $250,000 fine. A May 27 plea agreement in the case was not immediately available electronically.
