Texas Retain a Case on Docket

In Texas, a Request to Retain a Case on Docket is a formal request made by a party in a lawsuit to keep the case active and prevent it from being dismissed for lack of prosecution. This request is used when a case has been inactive for an extended period, and the court may be considering dismissing it due to inactivity.

By filing the request to retain a case, the party demonstrates their intention to continue pursuing the case and seeks to avoid its dismissal. The request usually includes reasons justifying the need for the case to remain on the court's docket, such as ongoing settlement negotiations, pending discovery, or other valid factors that may have contributed to the delay in the proceedings.
