Judge Damiane D. Curvey | 280th Family Court
MEET THE JUDGE
Judge Damiane D. Curvey has presided over the 280th Court since January 1, 2023. Her current term ends in 2027.
The 280th Judicial District Court is Harris County’s protective order court, focusing solely on domestic violence cases. Judge Curvey is a native Houstonian and has 17 years’ experience as a practicing attorney. She has handled almost two-thousand family law, criminal, juvenile, and probate cases during her career. In addition to being admitted to the Texas State Bar in 2005, she is also licensed to practice in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas as of 2006.
She is passionate about mentorship of young attorneys who desire to work as sole practitioners. She works to “Go out and do good, like Thurgood,” in reference to Thurgood Marshall, the United States Supreme Court Justice.
One of her goals for the 280th Court is to establish trauma-informed practices to help those who are victims of harm and those who harm. She wishes to make the 280th an inclusive courtroom, where men are neither afraid or ashamed to seek court invention from their abuser.
Judge Curvey is a mother of two children, and a dog mom of three pups.
