Sample Motion Banks? (texas)

Card image cap

Hello,

The past couple years I have found myself either directly involved or supporting others in numerous legal matters of all kinds, much of it pro-se. Criminal (misdemeanor, felony, appeals, etc.), Civil (small claims, federal civil rights, district, etc.), immigration (change of status, bond, etc.), etc..

During that time, I've learned most of it comes down to a couple of things:

  1. Knowing what motions to file

  2. Having examples of those motions as a starting point

  3. Knowing how to research the law

And I've realized that it seems like most lawyers just copy and paste, at least as a starting point, their motions from ones they have used in the past. Even I've started doing that to an extent.

Im looking for a large, free, publicly accessible database/collection of either motion templates, generic example motions, or (redacted where needed) actual motions used in court. Ideally specific to Texas. Does that exist?

Location: Texas
