Coryell County Clerk’s Office Closed January 19, 2026

Residents experienced limited access to county-record services when the Coryell County Clerk’s office closed January 19, 2026, the office posted on its website. The closure affected walk-in availability at the courthouse in Gatesville and interrupted routine access to land records, filings, and other clerk services until staff resume normal operations.

The county posted the notice as an official office closure on the Coryell County Clerk website. Contact information on the site lists the clerk’s mailing address as 620 East Main Street, P.O. Box 237, Gatesville, Texas 76528, and the main line for the county courthouse at (254) 865-5911. County Clerk Jennifer Newton is identified on the site, with an office extension listed on the county page for direct inquiries.

The county clerk’s office serves as the local repository for official documents and filings that residents, title companies, attorneys, and local businesses rely on. A closure can delay record retrieval, creation of official documents, and time-sensitive filings. Residents who needed records or filings during the closure were directed to use the courthouse main line or the county clerk contact information provided on the website rather than visiting in person.

The posted notice did not include additional details about the reason for the closure or a timetable for reopening. That omission leaves unresolved questions about how long services would be limited and whether emergency or deadline-driven filings would receive special handling. For residents facing statutory deadlines or pending transactions, confirming timelines with the clerk’s office is advisable.

For practical next steps, callers can reach the main courthouse line at (254) 865-5911 and consult the county clerk section of the Coryell County website for the office extension for Jennifer Newton and any online services the clerk maintains. The office mailing address is 620 East Main Street, P.O. Box 237, Gatesville, Texas 76528.

Local officials and residents will watch for updates on the clerk’s website or direct communications from the courthouse about when full services will resume. For now, residents should plan for possible delays in processing and contact the clerk’s listed phone numbers or office extension for specific case or record inquiries.
