Hello Everyone,
Late Friday afternoon, the Texas Supreme Court issued an emergency order, allowing justice courts in Fort Bend, Galveston, Harris, Matagorda, and Montgomery counties to extend deadlines if their office has been disrupted by the hurricane.
On Monday, July 15, 2024, an amended order was issued adding Brazoria County.
Please note, these deadline extensions could also impact the timelines for constable service in those counties, so constables should work with their courts to make sure service is proper and on the correct extended timeline.
You can read the order on the Texas Courts website: https://www.txcourts.gov/media/1458878/249042.pdf
