Court Rules

Southern District of Texas Rule and Standing Order Changes

New versions of documents from Southern District of Texas and its judges that Court Rules detected in the last 180 days, newest first. Each entry opens the new copy and the copy it replaced.

The date is the day Court Rules first saw the new version. Checks run about once a month, so the court may have posted it earlier. Only replaced PDF files are listed: a document posted at a new web address appears on its judge's page as a new document. A new version does not always change a rule, so compare the two copies.
