Due to COVID-19, the Texas Supreme Court issued several Emergency Orders.

Most recently, the Texas Supreme Court issued it’s 42nd Emergency Order, renewing until December 1st, the Texas Eviction Diversion Program. This program helps tenants avoid being evicted while also compensating landlords for past due and upcoming rent payments.

Also, the Supreme Court of Texas also issued their 43rd emergency order – extending until December 1st the courtroom usage of video and teleconferencing methods in both civil and criminal cases; while also allowing Justice of the Peace and Municipal Courts to modify certain deadlines. Lastly the 43rd emergency order also allows courts to continue the use of remote hearings.
