  • Clearing Title to Land: a Guide for Nonprofits in Texas 2
    1 Introduction Obtaining clear title to land is one of the most significant legal hurdles faced by nonprofit community development organizations in Texas. Many urban neighborhoods in Texas are plagued by vacant and abandoned lots with a variety of title problems, including unknown owners, tax liens, and municipal liens. Title problems are common in rural areas as well, especially in communities along the Texas-Mexico border. Nonprofit organizations would like to acquire these lots to develop housing for low-income families and for other economic development activities. Yet, without being able to obtain clear title, development is not practical. Texas C-BAR designed this guide to serve as a resource for nonprofit community development organizations in Texas and their attorneys as they attempt to overcome this all too common hurdle and make decisions regarding the purchase and preparation of land for development. The guide provides an overview of Texas laws governing title to property, different legal measures to clear title, and steps to maintain clear title. The materials in this guide are intended for informational purposes and to illustrate techniques for resolving frequently encountered problems relating to title problems for property located in Texas. These materials are not to be used as a substitute for the advice of an attorney. Persons reviewing this guide should not act upon the information in this guide without seeking legal counsel. CLEARING TITLE TO LAND: A GUIDE FOR NONPROFITS IN TEXAS 2 Acknowledgments The preparation and publication of this guide have been funded in part by the Real Estate, Probate and Trust Law Section of the State Bar of Texas; and Bank of America.

  • Chapter 6 – Civil Case Procedures
    GENERAL DISTRICT COURT MANUAL CIVIL CASE PROCEDURES Page 6-1 Chapter 6 – Civil Case Procedures Introduction Civil cases are brought to enforce, redress, or protect the private rights of an individual, organization or government entity. The remedies available in a civil action include the recovery of money damages and the issuance of a court order requiring a party to the suit to complete an agreement or to refrain from some activity. The party who initiates the suit is the “plaintiff,” and the party against whom the suit is brought is the “defendant.” In civil cases, the plaintiff must prove his case by “a preponderance of the evidence.” Any person who is a plaintiff in a civil action in a court of the Commonwealth and a resident of the Commonwealth or a defendant in a civil action in a court of the Commonwealth, and who is on account of his poverty unable to pay fees or costs, may be allowed by the court to sue or defendant a suit therein without paying fees and costs. The person may file the DC-409, PETITION FOR PROCEEDING IN CIVIL CASE WITHOUT PAYMENT OF FEES OR COSTS . In determining a person’s ability to pay fees or costs on account of his/her poverty, the court shall consider whether such person is current recipient of a state and federally funded public assistance program for the indigent or is represented by legal aid society, including an attorney appearing as counsel, pro bono or assigned or referred by legal aid society. If so, such person shall be presumed unable to pay such fees and costs.

  • General District Courts
    General District Courts There is a general district court in each city and county in Virginia. The general district court hears traffic violation cases, minor criminal cases known as misdemeanors, and civil cases such landlord and tenant disputes, contract disputes, and personal injury actions. The general district court does not conduct jury trials. All cases in this court are heard by a judge. Jury trials are held only in circuit court, as provided by the Constitution of Virginia. The judge is sworn to enforce, without favor, the laws of the Commonwealth and community. By law, the court must apply rules of procedure and evidence to each case it hears. These procedures are applied uniformly, regardless of who is appearing before the court. If you are appearing in court, it is likely for one of the following reasons: • You are a plaintiff because you filed a civil suit. • You are a complainant because you have caused criminal charges to be brought against someone. • You are a defendant because someone is suing you, or you have been charged with a traffic violation or a criminal offense. • You are a witness who has been called to testify. Types of General District Court Cases Civil Cases. The general district court decides civil cases in which the amount in question does not exceed $25,000, except for personal injury and wrongful death cases in which the amount in question does not exceed $50,000. In addition, unlawful detainer (eviction) suits that include a request for rent for commercial or agricultural property can be heard by the general district court even if the amount of rent requested is more than $25,000.
