Dayton Justice Court serves the residents of Liberty County, the 216th 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 Dayton 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 Dayton Justice Court judge has been in office since 2018 and has dedicated his life serving the Dayton. The courts, the district clerk, and the county clerk’s office are located in the historic Liberty County Courthouse. The Dayton Justice Court is located on 1300 West Clayton Street in the city of Dayton, the Liberty county seat.
