Hardin County Court serves the residents of Hardin County, the 91th largest county in Texas state. The county falls in the third senatorial district and the 11th congressional district. As a result, it holds a very special role that makes it supported by both the Kountze district clerk and county clerk. Issues that should be filed with the county clerk or the district clerk should be strictly filed within the respective courts; luckily, the staff is friendly and will help you through the process.

The current Hardin County Court judge has been in office since 2011 and has dedicated his life serving the Kountze. The courts, the district clerk, and the county clerk’s office are located in the historic Hardin County Courthouse. The Hardin County Court is located on 300 West Monroe Street in the city of Kountze, the Hardin county seat.

The administration of justice in the Hardin County Court is open, transparent, and open to the public. All the proceedings and acts of the court are recorded and maintained by the Hardin County Clerk’s Office. The public can access the record online or by mailing the county clerk’s office located at Hardin County Courthouse.

Hardin County Court was first built in 1919 in the Hardin Courthouse Square where the first sessions of the court were held alfresco underneath the boughs of oak trees in August 1889. Four courthouses have been built in Kountze. The current fourth courthouse is a great architectural marvel featuring a double-spiral staircase and a beautiful stained-glass montage in the dome.
