Terms of Use

These conditions govern access to and use of this website. Reading its content, visiting a page, or running a search signals acceptance of the terms below. Anyone who does not agree should stop using the site.

NO FCRA USE. This privately owned website has no affiliation with a court or local, state, or federal government body. Neither it nor its advertising partners provides a service intended for credit, employment, tenant, insurance, or another decision regulated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). Its purpose is to help visitors locate court docket and case-record resources in Collin County, Texas. It is not a consumer reporting agency or private investigation firm.

1. What This Website Is

This is a private reference site operated independently of every court and government office. It neither stores official court records nor retrieves dockets, changes settings, or files papers for a user.

The site points readers to the offices and systems that hold Collin County court information, including District Clerk Michael Gould, the Texas District Courts, other local clerks, official county search tools, and re:SearchTX. It may also connect a visitor with an outside research tool.

2. Informational Use Only

All content is general information. Explanations of Collin County dockets and records cannot replace an official docket, a court order, or an attorney's advice. Treat the material as a starting point and verify important facts with the clerk or court that keeps the case.

3. Rules for Using This Site

You agree that you will not:

  • Break any federal, state, or local law while using this site
  • Use information you find here to stalk, harass, or threaten anyone
  • Base hiring, housing, lending, or insurance decisions on content from this site
  • Try to break into our systems or gain access you are not supposed to have
  • Run bots, scrapers, or automated tools against our pages
  • Do anything that slows the site down or blocks other people from using it

4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency

We are not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA. We do not generate background checks, credit reports, or consumer reports of any kind. Neither we nor our advertising partners provide services built for screening job applicants, reviewing rental applications, calculating insurance rates, or judging creditworthiness. You agree not to use data from this site or any linked tool to:

  • Decide whether to hire or fire someone
  • Screen potential renters or housing applicants
  • Judge creditworthiness or set insurance premiums
  • Determine who qualifies for licenses, permits, or government programs
  • Do anything else that falls under FCRA rules

If you need a background check for any of those purposes, use an FCRA-compliant screening company.

5. No Legal Advice

Nothing on this site is legal advice. General information about Collin County dockets cannot determine how a charge, case, order, or deadline affects a particular person. Consult a licensed Texas attorney for legal advice.

6. Accuracy Is Not Guaranteed

All material and services are provided "as is." No promise is made that:

  • The information here is accurate, complete, or current at any given time
  • The site will stay up and running without interruptions
  • Our pages are free of errors, bugs, or security holes
  • Results from our partner search tools will be thorough or accurate

Dockets change as cases are filed, settings move, and matters are amended, dismissed, or sealed. Updates may lag or leave gaps. Content here is never an official statement by a court or clerk. Verify each important entry or date with the court that holds the case.

7. Third-Party Services and Links

Links may lead to clerk pages, court portals, statewide systems, legal aid resources, or outside search services. Those destinations are beyond our control. We are not responsible for their availability, content, data practices, or fees. Review the destination's own terms before using it.

8. Intellectual Property

Text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Collin County Court Docket or its content partners. The material may not be copied, changed, distributed, or used to create derivative work without prior written permission.

9. Limits on Our Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for damages arising from site use, including reliance on information found here or through a linked service.

10. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from claims, demands, or legal actions caused by your site use or violation of these terms, including related costs and legal fees.

11. Governing Law

Texas law governs these terms. Any dispute arising from use of this site must be brought in a court located in Texas. The Texas Public Information Act does not turn this private website into a government records custodian. Judicial records are obtained from the responsible court or clerk, with access governed mainly by Texas Rule of Judicial Administration 12 and other court rules.

12. Changes to These Terms

These terms may be revised at any time. A revision takes effect when it is posted on this page.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you look up a case or docket for me?

No. We are a private reference site with no access to the court's docketing system. You can run a case search yourself or contact the clerk of court.

Can you change or confirm my court date?

No. Only the court can set, reset, or confirm a hearing. Check the court calendar and verify any date with the clerk of court.

Is a docket entry on a linked tool official?

No. Docket data on third-party tools may be incomplete or out of date. The official docket comes from the clerk of court that holds the case.
