Glen Rose Municipal Court serves the residents of Somervell County, the 185th 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 Glen Rose 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 Glen Rose Municipal Court judge has been in office since 2012 and has dedicated his life serving the Glen Rose. The courts, the district clerk, and the county clerk’s office are located in the historic Somervell County Courthouse. The Glen Rose Municipal Court is located on 201 Vernon Street in the city of Glen Rose, the Somervell county seat.
