File a Request to Reinstate a Case on Docket

In Texas, a Request to Reinstate a Case on Docket is a formal petition made by a party in a lawsuit to have their case reactivated after it has been dismissed for lack of prosecution or other reasons. This request is used when a case was dismissed due to inactivity or failure to comply with court deadlines, and the party now wants to revive the case and continue with the legal proceedings. The request typically includes reasons explaining why the case should be reinstated, such as new evidence, a change in circumstances, or an error in the dismissal process. The court will review the request and determine whether to reinstate the case and allow it to proceed further.
