Odyssey Public Access

The main online starting point for Guadalupe County court records is the county’s Odyssey Public Access system. Use it to open the public records portal and choose the case area that matches your search.

Search Guadalupe County court records

The portal includes these public options: Guadalupe Criminal Case Records, Probate/Guardianship Case Records, Civil, Family Case Records, Court Calendar, Jail Records, and Jail Bond Records.

  • Open the public access portal.
  • Select the record category that matches your case, such as criminal, probate or guardianship, or civil and family.
  • Review the case listing or calendar information and note the case number before contacting a clerk’s office or making a payment.

For misdemeanor payments, Guadalupe County says you should verify with the County Clerk before paying and use the portal to locate the case number first.

Which clerk handles the record

Guadalupe County splits court record responsibilities by court and case type. Choosing the right office first can save time when you need copies, status checks, or help with a specific case.

  • County Clerk: court records for civil, probate, and misdemeanor criminal matters.
  • District Clerk: district court records, including civil, divorce, family, child support, criminal, and collections matters.
  • Probate Court: uncontested probate scheduling and probate court procedures route through the County Judge’s Probate court, while filings go through the County Clerk.

The District Clerk also maintains district court dockets, and the county provides a separate district docket page for reviewing posted settings and checking whether your name appears on a docket.

Copies, payments, and case follow-up

Guadalupe County offers electronic certified copies of court records for online purchase through the County Clerk. The county states that purchased certified records are delivered by email within seconds and are self-validating and tamper-evident.

If you need a certified court record, start from the County Clerk courts page and follow the electronic certified records path. If you only need to review a case first, use the public access portal before ordering.

For misdemeanor cases only, the County Clerk accepts online payments. The county instructs users not to submit payments for probation fees, Justice of the Peace cases, felony cases, or family law cases, and not to pay before the court hearing.

District court dockets and probate status

If you are tracking a district court setting rather than pulling a full case record, the district docket page can help you check posted dockets. The county instructs users to scroll through the full document to look for their name and to contact the District Attorney for felony criminal cases or the Court Coordinator for civil or family law questions when needed.

Check District Court dockets

For probate matters, the Probate Court page includes hearing dates and filing rules for uncontested probate cases. It also states that civil court matters must be submitted electronically and that efiling status can be checked online through the records page, with assistance available from the County Clerk Courts Department.

Court records contacts

Use the contact that matches your case type before requesting copies, checking status, or asking where a record is filed.
