Description
In a Texas family case, a judge makes the decisions, and what you file is what the judge sees. If you do not know which case you are in or which deadlines apply, it is easy to lose ground early. Texas Family Law explains the full arc of a family case in plain English.
The guide helps you identify your case: a divorce under Chapter 6, a SAPCR under Chapter 102, or both. It covers the four gates before filing, jurisdiction, venue, standing and grounds, including the two-part Texas residency test and UCCJEA home-state jurisdiction for a child. It shows how the answer deadline is calculated: the first Monday after 20 days, by ten in the morning.
You will learn the difference between conservatorship and possession, the joint managing conservatorship presumption and the family-violence bar, and how to read a Standard Possession Order. The guide explains guideline child support, including net resources, allowable deductions, the guideline percentages, the statutory cap and medical support. It also covers temporary orders, the 14-day restraining order, discovery, the sworn inventory, mediation and the mediated settlement agreement, spousal maintenance, the final order, enforcement and modification.
This guide is for Texas parents and spouses in any stage of a family case. Legal information, not legal advice.
