Originals are reproduced unchanged from the Texas Judicial Branch. Neither OurSCOTX nor the information as presented on this website is endorsed by the State of Texas or any state agency.

How we check sources and versions

Each entry identifies the issuing institution, official original, approval or revision date, and the date we checked and copied it. We review the current official directory and relevant later orders separately. An accessible link alone does not establish that a form is up to date.

This is a selected collection. Documents with an identified replacement or unresolved version issue are withheld. Source checks do not determine whether a document fits a particular case. Read the original instructions and the rules that apply to your court; check the official directory for changes after the review date.

The original files and their notices remain intact. OurSCOTX provides the navigation and source notes. Texas Judicial Branch site policies
