A local administrative rule of the Johnson County District Courts directing the District Clerk to refuse a family pleading that omits the required notice or that styles the parties or children by initials only.
Applies to family-law pleadings filed with the Johnson County District Clerk for the 18th, 249th and 413th District Courts.
As Texas Family Code sections 102.008 and 105.006 require the full names of the parties and the name and date of birth of any minor children in family law pleadings, the District Clerk is ordered to refuse to accept for filing any pleading that does not contain the required notice and/or contains only the initials of the parties or the children in the style. This rule does not apply to the caption
