What is electronic filing (E-Filing)?
Electronic filing is a system that enables registered users to file documents with the court anytime, anywhere, 24-hours-a-day, seven-days-a-week. This system provides customers the opportunity to transition from an inefficient, paper-based process to a streamlined, technology-based electronic filing (e-filing) system.

How to calculate your E-Filing cost and avoid your case being rejected.

New filings include the following costs: a $54 filing fee, a $75 constable service fee per defendant, if served in Tarrant County (please select correct precinct), and copy fees ($1 for first page, 25 cents per additional page). For example: new filing against one defendant with a nine page document, the total cost would be $129  ($54 for the filing fee, $75 for the Precinct 4 Constable 1 service fee, $1 for the copy of the first page and $2 for the eight remaining pages).

See Fees. Court reserves the right to correct payment if under or over paid.

Overpayment/Refunds

Refunds for E-Filing (electronic filing) are made for overpayment or errors, not for filing against the wrong person or entity. The refund process takes about two weeks. Please double-check your filing information before submitting.
