For Schleicher County, SearchSystems opened and checked the court records page for the county at schleichercounty.gov/page/County.Clerk (page title: County Clerk | Schleicher County, TX), phone 325-853-2833, Monday through Friday 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m., which answered when SearchSystems opened it on September 27, 2026.
Texas has no single public index of every trial court case; each court's records are looked up through that court.
The Texas Criminal History and Your Own Copy
Texas is one of the states that lets anyone look up another person's statewide criminal history: the Conviction Database search lets anyone look up convictions and deferred adjudications by name, for $3 a search, through the Texas Department of Public Safety. The result is the repository record, what agencies reported to the state, which is wider than one county's court index but can lag it. The search is on the Texas Department of Public Safety site.
To see your own record, the route is a fingerprint-based request to the Department of Public Safety. The state page SearchSystems verified for it is at securesite.dps.texas.gov/dpswebsite/criminalhistory.
