Floyd County Court Docket Searches
Floyd County has no single docket portal that reaches every local court. Start by finding which court your paper came from. It might be a citation, pleading, order, or notice. That one detail decides where the case lives. District records sit with the District Clerk. The constitutional County Court keeps its records with the County Clerk. Justice and municipal courts hold their own dockets. The statewide re:SearchTX service covers some electronic filings and offers another route. Its terms do not promise complete historical or statewide trial-court coverage for a Floyd County docket search.
- Read the source document and identify the exact court and case type.
- Copy the cause or citation number exactly. For Floyd district numbers, omit commas and hyphens.
- Check the proper official source or contact the custodian by phone, email, mail, or in person.
- Ask for a docket sheet, named filing, order, judgment, or certified copy rather than “all records.”
- Confirm the newest setting and any fee with the clerk before relying on the result.
Have a district case number but no results? Call the Floyd County District Clerk at (806) 983-4923. A blank screen can mean a coverage gap, a typo in the number format, the wrong court, an older unindexed file, or a lawful restriction on the record. Before you mail a request or drive to Floydada, confirm the office's current delivery instructions, accepted payment method, and public-counter availability.
Floyd County Docket Number Format
The District Clerk posts a small local rule with real practical value. Floyd district case numbers include 10000 and 4500. Those go into the system without commas or hyphens. Pending tax matters may add the suffix 5806TS to the number. Copy punctuation from another document. A valid cause number can then fail in the search field.
Keep the meaningful letters and enter the number exactly as the clerk posts it. Do not assume this district-court convention applies to a municipal citation or JP case. Confirm that court's own format first. If the number still fails, give the clerk the key details. Include the number, the court, the case type, an approximate filing date, and the record you want. The clerk can tell a formatting problem from a case held by another office.
Local search key: Try the Floyd district number without commas or hyphens before concluding that the court docket is unavailable.
Court Dockets: What They Show
A Floyd County court docket is a chronological register of case events. It is not automatically the complete file. Each entry may point to a pleading, notice, return, order, or judgment. You must open or request those separately. Floyd's local e-filing FAQ adds a related point. A lead document and its attachments may be combined in one accepted PDF. A proposed order, though, should be filed as its own lead document.
| Cause number | The court's local identifier, including any meaningful suffix. |
|---|---|
| Case style | The official caption used to identify the matter. |
| Filing entry | The date and short label for a pleading, notice, motion, or return. |
| Setting | A scheduled hearing or appearance that may later be reset. |
| Order or judgment | A judicial act whose full terms appear in the signed document. |
| Disposition | The outcome or status recorded by the court, subject to the controlling order. |
Submitted does not always mean accepted. Inactive does not necessarily mean dismissed, so read the whole sequence of Floyd docket entries and request the underlying file-marked document when an abbreviated line leaves you guessing.
Floyd County Docket Routes
The official Floyd County entry point places the courthouse in Floydada. The address is 105 South Main Street. Several county court functions work out of that one address. Room numbers and office names decide the record route. Room 204 houses the 110th District Court office. Room 207 holds the District Clerk, and Room 105 is the County Judge.
The county homepage confirms the government destination, not a universal case search. Bring the cause number and know whether your record belongs to the District Clerk, the County Clerk, a justice court, or a court office. Call ahead about public-counter hours before you travel.
Floyd County Courts and Their Dockets
Floyd County runs one district court and a constitutional County Court. There is no county court at law. Four justice places are organized into two offices, and municipal courts sit in Floydada and Lockney. That lineup shapes any Floyd County criminal docket or civil docket search. Appeals within intermediate state jurisdiction go to the Seventh Court of Appeals in Amarillo. Federal matters belong to the Northern District of Texas. Bankruptcy goes through the bankruptcy system and PACER. Those never touch a county docket.
| Court | Docket covers | Where to search |
|---|---|---|
| 110th District Court | District civil, family, criminal, and child-protection cases | Floyd County District Clerk; covered records in re:SearchTX |
| Constitutional County Court | Matters assigned to the county court by law and local practice | Floyd County Clerk |
| JP Precincts 1 & 4 | Assigned justice civil and traffic matters | Floydada justice office |
| JP Precincts 2 & 3 | Assigned justice civil and traffic matters | Lockney justice office |
| Municipal courts | City ordinance and fine-only municipal cases | Floydada or Lockney Municipal Court |
Jurisdiction controls custody. Something that happened inside a city limits does not make the municipal court the custodian of a district lawsuit or felony case. The official constitutional County Court office page documents that separate county-level route.
The County Judge page identifies the County Court office. To request filed County Court records, go through the County Clerk instead.
Floyd County 110th District Docket
The 110th District Court serves Floyd, Briscoe, Dickens, and Motley counties. That broader reach does not move Floyd's case files to some other county clerk. The Floyd County District Clerk maintains Floyd district filings and docket entries. The district court office coordinates the court's work.
The official 110th District Court page gives the local court office and coordinator route. It is not a live Floyd County docket. For a filed document or certified district record, go through the District Clerk. Coordinator names differ between county and OCA sources. Confirm the phone route before you travel.
Court Dates and Settings in Floyd County
Floyd County posts no public countywide calendar URL. It offers no daily docket sheet and no recurring docket-call schedule. Keep the two tools straight. A docket entry records that a setting, notice, or order was entered, while a calendar tells you when and where an appearance is planned. Neither is an OCA annual activity count, which summarizes workload rather than a hearing date.
For a district setting, call the 110th District Court at (806) 983-3384. The District Clerk can be reached at (806) 983-4923. County Court settings may require the County Clerk or the court coordinator. Justice and municipal dates must be confirmed with the issuing court. Have the cause number and court ready. Add the requested date range and setting type. Bring any continuance or cancellation questions too.
- Setting
- A scheduled event shown in the case record or court calendar.
- Reset
- A new date replacing an earlier setting.
- Continuance
- A court-approved delay; it does not mean dismissal.
- Docket call
- A session in which several cases may be called for status or action.
Floyd County Docket Statistics Context
For a sense of scale, turn to the OCA's FY2024 reports. They measure workload, not live docket results. Floyd County's district criminal docket opened with 43 cases and took in 19 more. It disposed of 27 cases and closed the year at 45 in status. District civil moved from 91 up to 112. It took 38 filings and disposed of 20. Family court started at 75, gained 58, resolved 48, and finished at 81.
The FY2024 statistical report index is where these workload figures come from. A report like this will never hand you a cause number, a charge, a party, a setting, or an outcome, so treat it as annual context only.
Docket Access Under Texas Law
Access turns on what a record is. It also turns on who holds it. The Judicial Branch does not answer to the Texas Public Information Act or federal FOIA the way an executive agency does. Court records that are adjudicative follow their own rules and law. A record can be public yet never posted online in full. Floyd County dockets may sit open at the counter. An attachment can stay sealed, redacted, or simply absent from the internet.
Texas access framework:
Judicial Branch open-records policy explains the distinction between judicial records and court case files.
Texas Rule of Judicial Administration 12 governs access to records within its definition.
Texas Government Code §552.0035 places access to judiciary information under court rules and other applicable law.
Texas Rule of Civil Procedure 76a sets the standard and process for sealing civil court records.
Texas Family Code Chapter 58 limits access to juvenile records.
In certain protective-order matters, courts can also withhold protected addresses and identifying details. A missing attachment is not proof that no case exists. Ask the right Floyd clerk which portions of the court file remain public.
Floyd County Docket Search Uses re:SearchTX
Texas treats re:SearchTX as a statewide electronic access layer. The Floyd District Clerk links to statewide e-filing resources through it. One caveat matters. The Texas Judicial Branch itself says no single website holds all Texas trial-court records. Coverage, document access, and account type can vary by county. How far back the history runs can vary too. The official re:SearchTX entry page offers case, filing, text, and hearing searches where data is available. Treat any statewide hit as a lead. It is not a substitute for confirming the docket with the clerk. The County Clerk's external records link is likewise no sure route to constitutional County Court pleadings. Municipal and JP records start with each individual court.
| Channel | Best use | Limit |
|---|---|---|
| re:SearchTX | Covered electronic cases, filings, text, and hearings | Not a complete universal trial-court index |
| Local clerk | Official docket, named document, certification, and fee quote | Must identify the correct custodian |
| OCA CARD | Aggregate activity and directory research | Cannot retrieve an individual case |

District civil, family, criminal, and child-protection docket records
The official District Clerk page lists the contact details and the e-filing notice. When you request a record, give the court and the cause number. Include the document name and the approximate date. Say whether you want a plain or certified copy, and give your delivery preference. Chapter 51 sets out several clerk-fee categories. Ask for a current quote on the exact service rather than assuming one flat amount.
Floyd County Clerk Docket Limits
The County Clerk holds constitutional County Court records along with county recording and vital-record functions. Its public copy form covers marriage and deed copies, not district pleadings or every county court document. Before using a general records form, ask the office to confirm it actually holds the court file you need.
The official Floyd County Clerk page also publishes a filing cutoff: 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Thursday, and 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Friday. Anything filed later counts as a next-business-day public-record filing. That rule belongs to the County Clerk alone. It is not a district, justice, or municipal calendar rule. The office sits in the Floyd County Courthouse and answers at (806) 983-4905. Confirm current delivery options and fees directly.
City-by-City Court Dockets in Floyd County
Floyd County contains just two incorporated cities by the official city and OCA sources. Each one runs its own municipal record route for city ordinance and fine-only cases. The 2020 Census counts sit behind the ranking. They are 2,675 for Floydada and 1,498 for Lockney. No third incorporated city appears in those sources. Unincorporated communities are therefore left off the city list rather than dressed up as cities.
Floydada Court Records
Floydada Municipal Court

(806) 983-3615
Municipal citations and city-ordinance matters; no public online city docket was located.
Lockney Court Records
Lockney Municipal Court
PO Box 385
(806) 652-2355
Municipal citations and city matters; the general city form is not a docket search.
A city address settles nothing about jurisdiction. Floydada also hosts JP Precincts 1 and 4, while Lockney hosts JP Precincts 2 and 3. Read the issuing court on your citation before calling a city clerk.
Floyd County Justice Docket Offices
The four Floyd County justice places work through two office groups. Precincts 1 and 4 sit in Floydada at 114 W Virginia Street. They share the number (806) 983-4911. Precincts 2 and 3 tie to PO Box 302 in Lockney and use (806) 652-3622. One wrinkle: OCA and the county page give conflicting Lockney ZIP information. Confirm the full mailing address before sending any request or payment. The official Floyd County justice page posts the county's contact route for the justice courts.
A justice docket can carry assigned small claims, debt claims, evictions, and misdemeanor or traffic cases within statutory jurisdiction. The issuing precinct controls the record. Budget lines for JP fines, deferred adjudication, or defensive-driving fees are projections only. They are not ticket prices or promises of eligibility.
Map and Directions to the Floyd County Courthouse

No official source describes a public terminal, walk-in copy fee sheet, or courthouse security and parking rules, so call the District Clerk's office before the trip to confirm current access. The County Clerk's counter in the same building accepts filings Monday through Thursday 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Friday 8 a.m. to 2 p.m., a schedule that may not match the District Clerk's own hours.
