Scope

and before appellate judges and post-trial procedure in
trial courts in criminal cases.
History
Notes and Comments Comment to 1997 change: Subdivision 1.1 is simplified without substantive change. Subdivision 1.2 is amended to make clear that any person is entitled to a copy of local rules. Paragraph 1.2(c ), restricting dismissal of a case for noncompliance with a local rule, is added. Comment to 2023 change: Rule 1.2 is amended to remove the requirement that the Supreme Court of Texas and Court of Criminal Appeals approve local rules and to expressly address local forms. The amended rule provides that local rules and forms must not conflict with other laws or rules and that they are not effective unless published on the Office of Court Administration’s website.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
