Searching Lampasas County: what to expect
Lampasas County keeps a modest online footprint — 2 of the 17 sources below are the county's own; the rest is statewide coverage. The county docket is online at co.lampasas.tx.us — one of the more useful local sources, since Texas has no single statewide court search. The standout local source is lampasascad.org, covering parcel and property-tax data. For recorded documents there's no county-level source online — the statewide routes on the Texas recorded documents page cover that piece.

Step 4 — Cross-check before relying on data
Most county portals lag 24-48 hours behind the courthouse. For time-sensitive verification, call the clerk directly.

Yes. Active warrants in Texas appear on name-based criminal background checks through the Texas Department of Public Safety system the moment they are entered. Some employers also run a separate NCIC warrant query, which catches federal warrants as well.
What is an ICE detainer (Form I-247)?
An ICE detainer (Form I-247) is a written request from ICE asking a local jail to hold someone for up to 48 additional hours after they would normally be released so ICE can take custody. Federal courts have held that detainers are requests, not orders — whether a jail honors a detainer depends on the local sheriff's policy.
