What are municipal courts in Texas?

Municipal Courts in Texas are courts that have limited jurisdiction over certain civil and criminal matters that occur within a municipal area (ie, a city or town). Municipal courts have exclusive jurisdiction over most violations of municipal ordinances. They may also hear preliminary felony hearings, and share jurisdiction over misdemeanors with Justices of the Peace. In civil matters, the jurisdiction of Municipal Courts is generally limited to cases involving dangerous dogs. Some Municipal Courts are courts of record (meaning that their proceedings are recorded and preserved), and some are not. According to the Texas Office of Court Administration, there are 917 Municipal Courts with a total of 1,500 judges, in the state of Texas.
