Name that plant

My Crepe Myrtle has many yellow leaves. Wondering if this is Bacterial Leaf Scorch? I don’t want it to spread to others in my yard!

Not able to see more of the tree and from what the picture showed, to my eyes this doesn’t looks like symptom bacteria leaf scorch. It might be the Cercospora leafspot? Check out the included link below and see if you have a match. Best wishes!
