About the 323rd Family District Court

The 323rd Family District Court hears Child Welfare and Juvenile Delinquency cases.

Juvenile court hearings take place inside the courtroom and are formal proceedings. It is helpful to arrive 15 minutes ahead of the scheduled hearing time to be available to confer with your child’s attorney. Youth and adults appearing in Court should be dressed appropriately. Attire such as shorts and tank tops are not permitted.

Inclement weather policy:  The court will follow the FWISD inclement weather closure policy.  For any settings that are scheduled during times when the FWISD is closed due to weather, the Court will grant the parties and attorneys an excuse for not appearing and an automatic continuance if permissible.  Attorneys must call the court promptly to discuss any necessary arrangements.

This policy will replace any previous policy for this court.  (1/19/2019)
