Step 1: Location
IMPORTANT:
It is critical to file the eviction petition in the correct precinct. Filing in the wrong precinct may result in some fees not being reimbursed.
Which Justice of Peace Precinct does the property belong?
How to Verify the Correct Precinct
Option 1: Contact a Justice of the Peace Court
Contact a Justice of the Peace Court Call any Justice of the Peace court and ask the clerk to confirm the precinct for the property’s location. Note: Precinct boundaries may change, so verify this information for each filing.
Option 2: Check the County Website
Visit the county’s official website to see if they offer a tool or resource to determine the correct precinct.
Helpful Tip: Call Ahead
Contact the courthouse to confirm: Are they closed for lunch or holidays on your planned filing date and time? Any special hours or closures?
