Montgomery County Court Records

Per Rule 12 of the Rules of Judicial Administration, a court record is a document, paper, letter, map, book, tape, photograph, film, recording, or other material made or maintained by or for a court. The custodian of court records in Montgomery County is the County Clerk or District Clerk, depending on where the case was filed, and these are kept per the provisions of the Texas Rules of Court.

Montgomery County court records are vital because they help attorneys and judges review case information outside of court proceedings, which can be used to provide a backdrop for further redress in an appellate court. Consequently, these records are considered a part of Montgomery County Public Records and are available to interested members of the public.

Are Court Records Public in Montgomery County?
