The state of Texas has 254
counties. Not all counties of Texas have a website. Those counties that do have a website can be found at: http://www.county.org/counties/txcounties.asp#list Even those counties with a website do not always give informaton on contacting the District Attorney. |
| Be aware, the Texas District and County Attorneys Association does not give information on contacting the membership. |
Some Texas counties call the
District Attorney the "District/County Attorney." Some Texas counties call the District Attorney the "Criminal District Attorney." Whenever possible, this distinction has been noted. |
| In 221 Texas
counties, a county attorney is elected for a four-year term. In 33
counties, there is no county attorney, so an elected criminal district
attorney performs the duties of county attorney. These duties vary
depending on whether the county has a district attorney. If there is no
district attorney, the county attorney represents the state in all
civil and criminal cases in both the district and county courts. If
there is a district attorney, the county attorney is responsible for
cases in the courts below the level of the district attorney. The
county attorney also acts as legal advisor for the county. In most cases you would contact the District Attorney Office for criminal complaints. |
