Summary
In counties larger than 750 square miles, the sheriff and county clerk may, if authorized by a fiscal court resolution, establish branch offices in any other city within the county. These branches can perform the same functions as the main offices, but all official records must remain at the county seat and the officers stay liable for any funds collected.
