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.
