Why YOU need ME!
Civil litigation in Texas can take place in several different courts, depending on the type of case, the amount in controversy, and the relief being sought. The most common courts handling civil matters are Justice of the Peace (also known as JP or Justice Courts), County Courts, and District Courts. ​While these courts share some similarities, there are important differences in both procedure and complexity.
Justice Courts generally handle smaller disputes—their jurisdictional limit is $20,000. They follow a more limited set of procedural rules and they do not have jurisdiction to decide cases involving title to real property. Meanwhile, Justice Court is the exclusive Court for eviction proceedings.
​
In contrast, County and District Courts handle more complex matters and are governed by the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure and the Texas Rules of Evidence, which impose more formal requirements on pleadings, discovery, and the presentation of evidence.
​
The Court in which a case is filed can affect how the case proceeds, the level of formality involved, and the overall strategy. Understanding these differences is an important part of evaluating and handling any civil matter.
