How the Andrews County Court Calendar Works
The county's main planning calendar is the yearly schedule for the 109th Judicial District Court. That court serves Andrews, Crane, and Winkler Counties. One document therefore covers three counties' work. It sorts the year into Non-Jury, Civil Jury, Criminal Jury, and Special Setting weeks. It also flags breaks, conferences, and holidays. Think of it as the court's planned rhythm. It is not an interactive list. It does not show every Andrews County case set on a given day.
A calendar block and a case setting answer two different questions. The schedule tells you when a category of work is expected. A docket entry or signed order ties one cause number to one hearing. The district spans three counties. Check the county along with the date and label. County Court, JP, and Andrews Municipal Court settings each come from their own offices.
Andrews County 109th Schedule Source
The official schedule index groups the court calendars by year. Open the year you need and note the block type: Non-Jury, Civil Jury, Criminal Jury, or Special Setting. The page lays out each year's calendar files for the district court.
The layout makes it easy to spot the current Andrews County court schedule and set aside an older year's pattern. Comparing years this way keeps you from planning around dates that no longer apply.
Andrews County Court Date Lookups
A solid date check uses every channel tied to the court holding the case. Treat the yearly district schedule as a planning aid. For participating courts and eligible cases, re:SearchTX can add hearing detail. Online information can run thin. A phone call or counter visit then matters most.
- Identify the court from the notice, citation, pleading, or cause number. Do not use the district calendar for a JP or municipal matter.
- For a district case, open the annual schedule and check the category. Search the docket or re:SearchTX where coverage applies.
- Call the district court administrator at 432-524-1419 for a special setting or unclear date. Contact the District Clerk by phone or at its counter for the case record.
- For County Court, contact the County Clerk. For a JP matter, call the assigned precinct. For a city citation, use the municipal portal or court office.
- Check the filed notice or signed order, and ask counsel when represented. Confirm date, type, county, and place before appearing.
The county posts no daily printed Andrews County docket call. If you see a courtroom posting, check it against the case notice and the proper court office before relying on it.
Andrews County Schedule Labels
Schedule labels are broad. They mark blocks of work, not the specific motion, plea, trial, or status issue in your case. Read the docket or order before drawing a finer conclusion.
- Non-Jury
- A setting without a jury. It may involve motions, bench trial, status work, or another matter.
- Civil Jury
- A planned civil jury block. Dates may change with each county's docket.
- Criminal Jury
- A planned criminal jury block. Confirm that the particular case is assigned and remains set.
- Special Setting Week
- Time for matters arranged through the court administrator.
- Judicial Conference
- An administrative marker, not a case disposition.
Spring Break and holiday markers affect calendar availability only. Neither one means a case was dismissed or resolved.
Court Settings: What Each Field Means
A complete Andrews County setting needs three things: the date, the right cause, and the event. A calendar block alone gives you none of that in full. Filing, signed, docket, and hearing dates can all land on different days.
| Date | The scheduled date; compare it with later reset entries or orders. |
|---|---|
| Time | The time in the notice or order; a broad block may not give an individual start. |
| Courtroom | The place named for the hearing; verify an unclear or old notice. |
| Judge or Court | The tribunal; for the 109th, also record Andrews, Crane, or Winkler County. |
| Setting Type | Non-jury, jury, special setting, motion, or another stated label. |
A docket line is just a pointer. When duration, purpose, or attendance matters, go to the filed notice or signed order.
Andrews County's Three-County Calendar
Crane and Winkler Counties share the 109th Judicial District with Andrews. The reason is simple. One schedule can contain work with no link to Andrews County at all. It also explains a warning. Jury dates may shift with the condition of each county docket. A familiar judge or court number never proves the listed work belongs to Andrews.
| Calendar clue | What to verify |
|---|---|
| 109th District Court | County, cause number, and setting type |
| Jury week | Whether the case is assigned and date stays active |
| Special setting | Administrator confirmation and case order |
| Lower court | County Court, correct JP, or Municipal Court channel |
This extra check keeps a district-wide planning block from being mistaken for proof of one Andrews County hearing.
When a Court Date Moves
A motion to continue or reset a hearing is a request. It is not an order granting it. Under the 2026 schedule, every agreed, unopposed, or opposed continuance or reset motion must state its place. Is it the filing party's first, second, or third such motion? That local rule tracks repeat requests. It does not make the proposed date final.
Work through the chronology instead: the motion, the signed order, and any later setting. Confirm with the clerk or administrator. The Andrews County docket search may locate the cause. But a signed order or a call to the court office is stronger when a date is disputed. Jury settings can also move with the condition of the docket.
Note: A reset changes scheduling. It does not dismiss the case or decide a claim or charge.
Andrews County Schedule Archive Search
A current search may stop short of an older docket or schedule. Then turn to the county archive. Its fields include Keywords, Archive, Time Period, Date Range Start, Date Range End, and Search. File titles often match terms like “court schedule,” “docket,” “non-jury,” and a year. A party name works less well.
The official archive page displays these search controls for public use.
An archive item may be a PDF or an image. Its title and date can still identify an old Andrews County court schedule, even when the rows are not searchable. Ask the clerk for a copy if the image is hard to read.
Andrews County Special Court Settings
Special settings run through the court administrator in Andrews County. The published district schedule says to reach out and ask. It also caps a temporary-order setting at 30 minutes per side. The court can allow more time. Those limits come from the district schedule. Do not assume every lower-court hearing in Andrews County follows them.
No standing public Zoom link exists for Andrews County settings. State guidance permits electronic hearings. But any remote appearance depends on a current order or local notice. Before the hearing, confirm three things. Is it in person or remote? Which link or room applies, and must papers be filed first?
Missed Settings and What Comes Next
Missed a setting? Move fast. Pull the notice and the docket entry. Then note the court, the cause number, and the event listed. Call the office holding the case, and call your counsel too if you have one. Ask what entry the court made, whether a new date is set, and what to do next. An online calendar can lag behind the real court record, so treat it as a starting point rather than the final word.
Missed a setting? Consequences depend on the court and case, so contact the proper Andrews County office at once.
Only the court, clerk, or current order can confirm the next required step.
Seek legal advice from a licensed attorney.
Who you call depends on the court. The district administrator handles district scheduling, the County Clerk keeps county-court records, each JP office covers its own precinct, and Municipal Court takes the city cases. Have a cause number or citation number handy. It makes any docket check far more precise.
Andrews County Jury Date Checks
A Civil Jury or Criminal Jury label on the schedule means a planned court block. It does not promise that every case tied to that week will actually go forward. The annual schedule warns that jury dates can shift. The dockets in Andrews, Crane, and Winkler Counties drive those changes. Check the latest case entry and any signed notice. Then confirm with the court office close to the setting date.
Keep the cause number close at hand. Ask if the case is still on the Andrews County docket, whether jury selection or a different event is set, and whether the time or place has moved. If the yearly PDF conflicts with a newer order, get confirmation instead of trusting whichever source looks easier. The latest valid court order, plus the court's current instruction, controls when you must appear.
