The state trial court of general jurisdiction is known as the district court. The county-level courts consist of the constitutional county courts, statutory county courts, and statutory probate courts.
The Travis County Court System is comprised of Civil Courts, Criminal Courts, Juvenile Courts, Probate Court, Drug Court, Veterans Court, DWI Court and the Justices of the Peace. District Court records are maintained by the Travis County District Clerk.
While most district courts try both criminal and civil cases, in the more densely populated counties the courts may specialize in civil, criminal, juvenile, or family law matters. As provided in the Texas Constitution, each of the 254 counties of the State has a single county court presided over by a county judge.
The state court system largely mirrors the structure of the federal court system in that it is generally composed of three main levels: trial courts, state appellate courts and a state Supreme Court.
