OPINION
2Opinion of the Court · PricePrice, J.
In its unpublished memorandum opinion in this bond-forfeiture case, the First Court of Appeals held that the trial court properly took judicial notice of the bond in holding that the evidence was sufficient to support the judgment against the principal surety. 1 Because this holding appears to conflict with that of several other courts of appeals, we granted the appellant’s petitions for discretionary review to decide whether judicial notice may be taken of a bail bond during proceedings to finalize the bond forfeiture. 2 We hold that it may.
