Texas Judiciary Launches Case Search Online but Refuses Public Access to Full Search Capabilities

re:searchTX: The new online Texas law case search portal. Attorneys will have expanded access to documents not available to the public.

Limited Transparency in Texas Justice Online Portal

Beginning November 7, attorneys and registered users can use re:SearchTX. If you have an eFileTexas account, you can use those credentials to access the system. All other users must register. For more information, go to research.txcourts.gov.TBJ

Attorneys will have expanded access to documents not available to the public.

Other than cases and documents that are restricted by court order, rule, or statute, attorneys will be able to view case information and documents from courts across the state.

In order to protect sensitive information, some case types will not be available through re:SearchTX for registered users.

A complete list of case types is located in Section 5 of the JCIT “Technology Standards,” available at http://www.txcourts.gov/media/1435816/technology-standards.pdf.

Additionally, eFileTexas and re:SeachTX will include redaction software to assist attorneys with automatically redacting sensitive information. Safeguards will be in place to prevent data mining and accessing and selling records from the system without the permission of OCA.
