Texas Civil Case Form PDF Details

The Texas Civil Case Information Sheet is a critical document designed to capture essential details at the initiation of a civil, family law, probate, or mental health case within the state of Texas. It marks the beginning of a legal process, requiring the submission of this form alongside the original petition or application to kickstart a new case, or when filing a post-judgment petition for modification or motion for enforcement in a family law case. The completion of this sheet, mandated by the Texas Judicial Council, serves a dual purpose. Primarily, it functions as a tool for collecting necessary information intended solely for statistical analysis; secondly, its structured format helps ensure that those embarking on the legal process provide all relevant details upfront. This includes contact information for the individual completing the form, names of parties involved, case types, and an indication of the specific issues at the heart of the case. It's worth noting that this sheet neither substitutes the legal obligation of filing pertinent documents as prescribed by law nor does it pertain to the discovery process, responses, or trial admissibility. Its utility extends to a range of case types—from civil disputes over contracts, injury, or property, to family law matters involving marriage, custody, and support, to probate and mental health issues—highlighting the diverse legal scenarios it encompasses. Despite its broad function, the Texas Civil Case Information Sheet simplifies the initial steps of the legal process by systematically capturing crucial case information, facilitating a smoother operation within the judicial system.

CIVIL CASE INFORMATION SHEET

CAUSE NUMBER (FOR CLERK USE ONLY): _______________________________ COURT (FOR CLERK USE ONLY): ______________________

STYLED

(e.g., John Smith v. All American Insurance Co; In re Mary Ann Jones; In the Matter of the Estate of George Jackson)

A civil case information sheet must be completed and submitted when an original petition or application is filed to initiate a new civil, family law, probate, or mental health case or when a post-judgment petition for modification or motion for enforcement is filed in a family law case. The information should be the best available at the time of filing. This sheet, approved by the Texas Judicial Council, is intended to collect information that will be used for statistical purposes only. It neither replaces nor supplements the filings or service of pleading or other documents as required by law or rule. The sheet does not constitute a discovery request, response, or supplementation, and it is not admissible at trial.
