Texas Court Records

For Texas court records or court records from any other state, simply request for them at www.courtrecords.org. In Texas the trial courts system includes district courts, county courts, constitutional county courts, county courts at law, statutory probate courts, justice courts, municipal courts and criminal district court.

While the district courts have general jurisdiction over all types of cases, but hear cases that are beyond the jurisdiction of the other courts. The county courts, justice courts and municipal courts have limited jurisdiction over particular types of cases. Courts often share jurisdiction and this sometimes makes the Texas judicial system a little difficult to understand.

District courts hear civil and criminal cases. Criminal cases heard at these courts include felonies and misdemeanors. Civil cases handled by the courts include those of domestic relations, probate cases and also personal injury cases. County courts include constitutional county courts, county courts at law and statutory probate courts. These courts hear both civil and criminal cases including domestic relations cases, probate cases and cases of county administration.

The jurisdiction of the Texas justice courts varies from court to court and usually they hear civil as well as criminal cases. Criminal cases include preliminary hearings for criminal cases and misdemeanors, while civil cases usually include claims and foreclosures. Texas municipal courts have limited jurisdiction and hear criminal cases of misdemeanors and ordinance violations and also handle civil cases. The criminal district court hears both civil and criminal courts.
