Municipal Courts and Justice Courts are the lowest level courts in any given county. Which of these courts is considered the "lowest" varies county to county. Some smaller counties may not have municipal courts (such as Borden and Mills counties), and some counties may not have Justice Courts (such as Dallas County), so it is hard to say that one is lower than the other. Generally, though, Municipal Courts and Justice Courts hear the lowest level of civil cases (such as small claims) and minor criminal matters, such as misdemeanor offenses and municipal ordinance violations, and felony preliminary hearings. the precise jurisdiction of a particular Municipal or Justice court depends greatly on the particular county, as each county divides jurisdiction between its various courts. For a directory of trial courts in Texas by county, and a general description of the general jurisdiction of each type of court, visit the Texas Courts Guide related link.

There are thousands of businesses and organizations that provide criminal background checks for a fee. Many of these are online, where the price can range tremendously from one site to another. The best criminal background checks will come from a licensed investigator who has access to information and databases the public does not. Extremely low cost or even free searches exist, but are merely a compilation of public records and can be littered with errors. The lowest cost for a criminal record check therefore is free, but if accuracy matters it may not be the best value.
