Local rules and standing orders. Each county and many individual courts also have LOCAL RULES and standing orders (for example, how to set a hearing or what must be filed before a family case). Ask the district clerk or the court coordinator for your court’s local rules and standing orders, or look on your county’s district clerk or district courts website. Judges can also have their own procedures — check before your first hearing.
ProSeFiler’s deadline math covers Texas only right now. Your Filing Plan and timeline tools work anywhere. For your state’s court rules and free self-help, search your state judiciary’s official website for "court rules" and "self-help center" — official court sites usually end in .gov or .us. Your county court clerk can also tell you where the local rules are posted.
