How the Crockett County Court Calendar Works
Crockett County splits its settings by court level, and the split shapes how you read any docket entry. The 112th District Court keeps its own calendar. It serves Crockett, Pecos, Reagan, Sutton, and Upton counties. That matters for travel. A setting listing only the district court name does not tell you where the hearing sits. Confirm the filing county. Verify the hearing location each time.
The county posts no daily calendar, docket-call list, or courtroom assignments on its official pages. The local district court site offers practice notes rather than a live docket feed. Matters outside the district court run through the County Court page and the Justice page. The constitutional County Court and Precinct 1 Justice of the Peace keep separate schedules. A calendar detail counts only once the court or clerk confirms it.
Crockett County 112th Court Practice
The 112th District Court’s court-branded site treats in-person hearings as the norm. It holds one Zoom docket each month. That docket is reserved for prove-ups and pleas. This describes the possible hearing modes, not a promise that your case is remote. Check the order or notice in the case file. Then verify with court staff.
The same practice notes allow a civil motion filed in one of the five district counties to be heard in another. Final hearings and summary-judgment motions must stay in the county where the case began. For a Crockett County case, the county field matters as much as the date. The 112th District Court source lays out these local scheduling rules.
Those practice notes are the reason each Crockett County hearing needs its own check. Confirm the case, county, setting type, and mode every time.
Crockett County Court Date Lookups
No single online calendar covers every Crockett County court, so work the channels in order. The District Clerk holds district court records. The County Clerk and County Court handle constitutional County Court matters. Precinct 1 JP staff cover justice and traffic settings. Your attorney’s notice plus a direct call to the court round out the docket search.
- Read the notice, citation, order, or docket entry. Identify the court, Crockett County, cause number, setting type, and location.
- For a district setting, check the 112th District Court source and try re:SearchTX for permitted electronic records. Statewide access may be limited.
- Call the District Clerk at 325-392-2022, County Court at 325-392-2965, or Precinct 1 JP at 325-392-2253, as the case requires.
- Before visiting the Crockett County Courthouse at 909 Ave D, Ozona, confirm counter access. Current hours and public postings were not published.
- Ask the attorney or administrator to confirm the date, time, county, mode, and location just before the event.
The county offers no public terminal or printed daily calendar. When an online setting will not appear, phone confirmation from the clerk is the documented fallback.
Crockett County Setting Request Details
For possible trial dates, the local court sends you to the administrator. Older official local rules sketch the data a request should carry. Their outdated names and addresses are not current contacts. A solid request lists the case style and cause number. It names Crockett County and the hearing type. It also carries the requested date, attorney details, represented party, and confirmation that opposing counsel was consulted.
Coordinate an agreed date before filing a motion and order setting. Those fields do not mean a date was granted. A signed order or direct confirmation from the court controls. Get current forms and open dates from the administrator.
Best identifier: Give the cause number and say “Crockett County” when asking the 112th District Court about a setting.
Court Settings: What Each Field Means
A setting is a scheduled event, nothing more. It is not a result. Read every field together, and remember that the public display is undocumented, so these fields describe the local workflow rather than a guaranteed portal screen.
| Date | The scheduled date, subject to reset. |
|---|---|
| Time | The start or docket-call time, which may differ from when one case is reached. |
| County and location | The place of hearing, vital because the 112th District covers five counties. |
| Court or judge | The court responsible for the setting. |
| Setting type | A motion, plea, prove-up, final hearing, summary-judgment hearing, or trial. |
| Hearing mode | In-person attendance or an authorized remote connection. |
When a motion shows up on the Crockett County court docket, that entry only records the filing. The filing date tells you nothing about a hearing; a motion can sit on the docket for a long time before any court date is set.
Crockett County Calendar Terms
Local calendar terms help separate a filed event from a live Crockett County setting.
- Setting
- A scheduled event such as a hearing, plea, prove-up, or trial.
- Prove-up
- A hearing where evidence supports a requested judgment or order.
- Continuance
- A request or order moving an event to a later date.
- Reset
- A replacement setting after the first date changes.
- Cause number
- The court-assigned case identifier.
The Texas courts Local Rules search pulls up rules, forms, and standing orders by county and court type. It is a procedure tool, not a case calendar.
Check procedure there, then verify the date with the Crockett County court or clerk.
When a Court Date Moves
A continuance request moves nothing on its own; the current order and court confirmation control. The local site asks that proposed criminal continuances be discussed with the District Attorney first. Once counsel agree, an agreed hearing order is e-filed. It also sets a timing request. Continuance motions should be filed before 3 PM the day before the hearing. Treat that as local practice, not permission to skip the set date.
Online records can lag, and Crockett search status is Limited. Ask the clerk whether the old date was canceled. Ask whether a signed reset order exists. A represented party should loop in counsel along with the court.
Note: an e-filed continuance motion stays a request. It becomes more only when the court grants it and confirms a new Crockett County setting.
No Crockett County Daily Feed
Crockett County publishes no County Court or JP calendar times. There is no daily docket call. There are no holiday hours, no same-day cutoff, and no public-terminal schedule. There is no public feed of any kind. That matters here. In a large rural county, driving to the courthouse costs real time. Always call before you leave. A missing feed does not mean nothing is set. The office that set the event is the one that must give you the date.
For a district case, call the administrator or the District Clerk. A constitutional County Court matter goes to that court or the County Clerk. A citation belongs to Precinct 1 JP. One caution: the County Judge page warns that its number is not for traffic tickets.
Missed Settings and What Comes Next
Act quickly after missing a Crockett County setting. Reach the named court, give the cause number, and ask whether an order, a warrant, a new date, or any other action was entered. If you have counsel, tell your lawyer at once. Never pick a date from an old entry, and never assume a phone message clears the absence.
Missed a setting? A missed appearance can have serious case-specific effects, and only the court can state the current status.
Call the proper Crockett County clerk or court at once and ask what official step is required.
A licensed attorney can advise how to address the missed setting and any resulting order.
The Crockett County docket search routes can surface a later entry in the court record. Still, the clerk or the court itself should confirm the live setting.
Verify the Crockett County Hearing
Before you drive anywhere, compare the latest notice with the court's direct answer. Confirm the cause number, Crockett County, the date, the time, the hearing type, the location, and the mode. District cases can sit in another county within the district. Ask which one hosts the event. Get any remote details from an official source.
A case register and a live schedule do different jobs. The register logs filings and events. The schedule says when something is set, and it can shift. Make your last check with the court, the clerk, the administrator, or counsel.
Which office you call depends on the court. Crockett County District Clerk Ninfa Preddy handles records for district matters at 325-392-2022. The constitutional County Court lists 325-392-2965. Precinct 1 Justice of the Peace lists 325-392-2253. The same clerk name appears on both the County Clerk and District Clerk pages, yet the two offices keep separate court records. Give staff the court name and the cause number.
Where the date came from shapes the follow-up. Crockett County's eFileTexas search status is Limited. The county pages do not say how quickly calendar changes reach a public screen, so note when you checked any electronic case record. If a mailed notice gave you the date, ask whether a later order superseded it. If it came from the monthly Zoom practice note, confirm the case is a prove-up or plea. Check that the court approved remote attendance too. These checks guard against a source that is right in general. It may still be stale for one hearing.
Crockett County Docket Versus Calendar
A docket entry can show a motion, a notice, or an order being filed. That alone does not create a live Crockett County hearing. A true calendar setting ties the case to a date, a time, and a court. It also names the county, an event type, and a location or approved remote mode. When those details clash, ask the court which later order controls.
The same logic holds after a reset. The old date can linger in the case history. A new setting governs. Keep both entries handy when you speak with staff, name the cause number, and ask for the most recent signed order or confirmed calendar entry. That narrow question beats asking whether the whole docket is current.
