How many federal district courts in Texas?
According to the Texas Office of Court Administration, there are 455 state District Courts in Texas. (This does not include Federal District Courts, which are part of a separate court system.) Some larger counties have more than one District Court, and some smaller counties share a District Court. All Texas counties are served by at least one District Court. District Courts are the courts of general jurisdiction in the Texas court system, and they may hear any civil or criminal case. Generally, District Courts hear cases beyond the jurisdiction of other courts, such as felony crimes, civil cases for large sums of money, contested probate cases, and family cases, such as divorce. These districts are not organized geographically, so the only way to know which district represents a particular county (or counties), is to have a directory. Visit the Texas Courts Guide related link for a directory of Texas Courts by county, as well as online court resources.
What are Texas District Courts?
District Courts are the courts of general jurisdiction in the Texas court system, and they may hear any civil or criminal case. Generally, District Courts hear cases beyond the jurisdiction of other courts, such as felony crimes, civil cases for large sums of money, contested probate cases, and family cases, such as divorce. Every county has at least one District Court, and some have several. Some smaller counties share District Courts. District Courts are numbered, so you may see a District Court identified as, for example, Bexar County District Court, or Bexar County 131st District Court. In counties with more than one District Court, this numbering system helps to differentiate between courts. Other trial courts in the Texas state court system include County Courts, Justice of the Peace Courts, and Municipal Courts. What cases each of these types of courts hears varies county to county.

In Texas felonies are tried in what court?
In the Texas state court system, felonies are tried in District Court, generally in the county where the crime occurred.
