Comal County Criminal Records
Choose Comal’s felony District Clerk records or County Court at Law misdemeanor copies, and use the Judicial Record Search for the appropriate case.
Route the Comal record by court before ordering anything
| If the case is… | Start here | What you are trying to obtain |
|---|---|---|
| A Class A or B misdemeanor in a County Court at Law | County Court at Law Clerk. | The county-court criminal case record. Comal states its County Courts at Law have jurisdiction over all Class A and B misdemeanor criminal cases. |
| A criminal matter filed in District Court | District Clerk Records & Resources and the Comal Judicial Record Search. | The District Court case locator and the specific filing maintained by the District Clerk. |
| A Texas criminal-history name search rather than one Comal case | Texas DPS Criminal History Name Search. | A separate state criminal-history product. It is not a Comal docket, and a Comal clerk copy is not statewide history coverage. |
For a District Court record, search first and request the exact filing second
-
01
Find the case and filing
The District Clerk directs readers to Comal County Judicial Record Search when they need to find a case or see what has been filed. Save the case number, party name, court and document title.
-
02
Check re:SearchTX for current orders
Comal’s District Clerk is integrated with re:SearchTX. Effective September 1, 2025, the office stopped e-serving or emailing Court Orders and Notices of Court Orders and directs parties to obtain those documents through re:SearchTX.
-
03
Request a copy when the search screen is not enough
Email the District Clerk with the document request. The office says it will reply with the total fee and take payment by phone; this turns a general case hit into the filed document you can read or submit.
-
04
Choose the delivery that matches certification
Regular copies can be emailed. Certified copies can be paid for by phone but must be picked up or mailed; the clerk currently lists an additional $2 fee for mailing certified copies.
Plain and certified outputs solve different problems
Regular copy
Useful when you need to read the filed document or retain a working copy. The District Clerk says regular copies can be delivered by email after the fee is quoted and paid.
Certified copy
Use when a court, agency, employer, licensing body or another recipient specifically requires clerk certification. For District Clerk records, Comal currently requires pickup or mail rather than email delivery of the certified copy.
Misdemeanor clerk contact
The County Court at Law Clerk has a dedicated criminal-misdemeanor contact. Start there for County Court at Law records instead of assuming the District Clerk route applies to every Comal criminal matter.
A Texas DPS name search is broader in geography but different in evidence
County case file ≠ statewide criminal history
The Texas DPS public name search currently charges one $1 search credit and searches the state criminal-history system, while Comal court tools identify county court cases and filings. DPS also warns that name/date-of-birth matching can return the wrong person or miss the correct record; its search guidance says fingerprint identification is the way to positively link someone to a criminal record. Use the product whose scope matches the question, then obtain the court document when exact disposition language matters.
