eFiling Now Available in the District Clerk's Office

The District Clerk has formed a partnership with Texas Online to provide Electronic Filing services. The partnership provides the ability to file paper pleadings electronically with the District Clerk's Office. Initially, electronic filings will be printed and processed as if pleadings were received over the counter, but with an added benefit not available at the counter. Once the electronic pleading has been officially accepted, the file marked image is stored in the District Clerk Enterprise Content Management System. This capability will accommodate future expansion of the Digital Court Project and the long-term goal of a paper-on-demand judiciary.

These programs are part of the District Clerk's goal to enhance service, to be more accessible, and to provide more efficient methods for the legal community and the public to transact business. Business hours and locations are available on the "Locations and Hours" page. To link to the District Clerk locations page click here. Information on expanded services is outlined below.
