Third Court of Appeals

Updated May 22, 2017: The Attorney Portal web site  URL has changed; you should no longer use "www."

Attorneys practicing before the Third Court of Appeals now have a Portal that provides secure online access for attorneys of record to view case documents which may not be available on the Court’s website. For example, the clerk’s and reporter’s record are not available on the Court’s website, but will now be available via the Attorney Portal to attorneys of record. The records are available for 60 months from the date the records are filed with the Court. Sealed records and non-pdf files are not available through the Attorney Portal, and separate arrangements with the Court will need to be made in order to access these documents.

Appellate records often contain sensitive information. Any attorney who obtains copies of appellate records must respect the sensitive nature of this information. By registering to use the Attorney Portal, you agree NOT to publish, share, or otherwise post downloaded documents to any public websites.

Attorneys can register for access to the Attorney Portal at attorneyportal.txcourts.gov/account/register/. You will need your bar member number and the email address currently on file with the Third Court of Appeals in order to register.
