What are courts created by the Texas Constitution called?

• A. Constitutional Courts
• B. Statutory Courts
• C. Administrative Courts
• D. Federal Courts

Answer: (A)

In Texas, courts created directly by the state Constitution are called constitutional courts. Their existence and structure come from the Constitution, so the number and jurisdiction of these courts are set there and changes usually require a constitutional amendment. This distinguishes them from statutory courts, which are created by the Legislature through statutes and can be altered more easily.
