How we approach it
Bexar County civil cases are heard in San Antonio, the county seat, in the district courts and the county courts at law. Appeals go to the Fourth Court of Appeals in San Antonio, and the county is in the San Antonio Division of the Western District of Texas for federal and bankruptcy cases.
For a medical-services company we took judgments against clinics in the Bexar County courts at law, three of them after contested summary judgment, and then domesticated them in the debtors’ home states, including Arkansas, Louisiana, Washington and Maryland.

The court’s rules on AI
Texas state courts. No statewide rule on AI is in force. In June 2026 the Supreme Court of Texas preliminarily approved a new Rule 13 under which signing a filing certifies that the signer verified it, including that its citations, quotations and holdings are not fabricated; no final order had issued. The Business Court’s Local Rule 10(c) permits AI but makes the filer independently responsible for every filing. The courts of appeals have no AI rules but sanction fabricated authority under their inherent power, as the Dallas court did in 2025, and Ethics Opinion 705 advises verifying every output, protecting confidences and supervising its use.
Checked against each court’s own rules and orders on 5 November 2026 for John Henry’s talk “AI in Modern Litigation” at the Eastern District of Texas Bankruptcy Bench Bar Conference. Rules change; the full reference, with every order cited, is on the AI in litigation page.
