The county's posted policies for the two Title IV-D courts in the Family Law Center (page last modified Aug. 31, 2023) — IV-D Court One (Judge Casey Conine) and IV-D Court Two (Judge Cherami J. Blaney Jenkins): check in at the correct first-floor waiting room; expect to wait, possibly all day; dress appropriately (no shorts, tank tops or revealing clothing, or be sent to change); do not bring children — only the judge will reset a case with instructions when a child must be present; the Office of the Attorney General and Domestic Relations Office attorneys do not represent the parties, who may ask for time to hire counsel or request a hearing before the judge; the family law courts, including the IV-D courts, close when Fort Worth ISD closes for inclement weather; never contact a judge directly about a pending or potential case.
Texas > Tarrant County > Title IV-D Courts One and Two (child-support dockets of the Eighth Administrative Judicial Region sitting at the Family Law Center) — parties, counsel and visitors; the inclement-weather rule extends to all Tarrant County family law courts.
"1. There are two IV-D Courts in the Family Law Center. IV-D Court One is presided over by Judge Casey Conine. IV-D Court Two is presided over by Judge Cherami J. Blaney Jenkins. Both courts and their respective waiting rooms are on the first floor of the Tarrant County Family Law Center. 2. Proceed to the correct waiting room and check in. … 3. The sign that says 'You May Be Here All Day' is correct. … 4. Remember that you are coming to Court. Please dress appropriately! Do not wear shorts, tank tops or other revealing clothing. If you are not dressed properly, you will be asked to change prior to entering the courtroom. DO NOT BRING CHILDREN TO COURT. There are no activities or play areas for children. … If your case is of a type that the child may be a witness or interviewed by the judge, the judge (and only the judge) will reset the case with specific instructions on when to bring the child to court. 5. The attorneys for the Office of the Attorney General and/or Domestic Relations Office DO NOT represent you. If you feel that you need to hire an attorney to represent your interests, then please do so. You can ask the Court for time to hire an attorney and a brief continuance may be granted. If you are not happy with what has happened during your negotiation conference, then ask for a hearing. You have the right to appear before the judge. 6. BAD WEATHER CLOSINGS — The family law courts in Tarrant County will close if Fort Worth ISD is closed due to inclement weather; this does include the IV-D (Child Support) Courts. WARNING — Do not attempt to directly contact a judge - by mail, e-mail, phone or in person - about any pending or potential lawsuit! Doing so may result in serious consequences."

Reviewer note: Own-site HTML page read in full 2026-09-06 from custody; quoted verbatim. The IV-D associate judges are regional appointments (Region 8 IV-D Courts Nos. 37 and 38 — Conine and Jenkins, matching the OCA roster) and are not court rows in the county spine, so this composes at county scope (division_family, family). Composed benchpath-ajr8-tarrant (own-site lane).
G-2026-045-SC required anyone using generative AI to disclose it on the face of the filing and add a scripted certification, on pain of striking, denial of relief or monetary penalties. Rule 2.515(d)(2) and AOSC26-12 preempted it on June 15, 2026, so it could not be enforced — and by August 16, 2026 the Seventh Circuit had removed the order from its published register (no rescission instrument appears there). BenchPath holds the hashed capture as the historical record.
