A Texas Criminal Standing Discovery Order is a judicial order issued by a court in the state of Texas to allow a defendant to obtain information from the prosecution about their criminal case. This order enables the defendant to obtain evidence relevant to their case and can include documents, photographs, recordings, witness statements, and physical evidence. The order also provides the defendant with access to any reports or documents related to their case, such as police reports, lab results, and autopsy reports. There are two types of Texas Criminal Standing Discovery Order: a standard discovery order and an open-file discovery order. A standard discovery order allows the defendant to obtain certain specified documents from the prosecution, while an open-file discovery order gives the defendant access to all documents and evidence the prosecution has, including those that may not have been shared with the defense.
