Starr County Court at Law Filing Rules

Senders must maintain or file the originals of electronically transmitted pleadings or documents when required by law.

The Clerk must file-stamp electronically transmitted pleadings and documents on the next business day and show the actual time received.

Pleadings, documents, and court orders may be filed electronically with the appropriate Clerk and are treated as originals, subject to the cited statute.

The Clerk must give the rejection notice by email and telephone.

A transferred case incurs no additional fees beyond any difference between the filing fees of the two courts.

A preexisting jury-trial setting in another court, by itself, is not a basis to continue either case.
