Most name changes occur when an individual either gets married or divorced; however, for various reasons, people may desire a name change at other points in their lives. In Texas, it is possible to change your name in a separate proceeding. The process to change an adult’s name is different than that to change a child’s name and this article will only address the procedure to change an adult’s name. Please visit our blog again later to for information on how to change a child’s name.
For an adult, to change your name you must follow the correct procedure and meet all requirements. The person seeking a name change must first file a petition in the district court in their county of residence. The petition must include very specific personal information such as your date of birth, social security number and a set of fingerprints. This personal information is required because the court must find that the person seeking the name change is not seeking it to avoid legal problems such as criminal convictions or evading debts. After the petition has been filed, the person seeking the name change will need to appear before the judge and give testimony regarding the personal information in the petition. At that time, if the judge finds no problems, he will sign an order changing your name.
After an order changing the name has been signed by the judge, that person should notify the appropriate governmental agencies such as the Social Security Agency and Department of Motor Vehicles to obtain a new social security card and driver’s license. You should also notify relevant private organizations such as credit card companies, banks, employers, and insurance providers. If any agencies or companies require proof of the name change, a certificate can be obtained from the district court clerk.

Fort Worth Cop Shoots, Kills Local Man In Front of His Three Kids
This past Monday night, a Fort Worth police officer pulled over a SUV driven by Charal Thomas, 32.
Thomas' three kids, ranging in age from 7 to 11, were all riding in the back seat. There was another adult in the vehicle, but reports aren't clear on who that was.
It started out as a routine traffic stop. It was around seven o'clock on Monday evening, a little after dusk, on Lucas Drive in Fort Worth, Texas.
We don't have the details on what was said, but we know that routine traffic stop didn't stay that way. Things went awry -- and for some reason Charal Thomas pulled away, dragging the cop along for a number of blocks, as the police officer held onto the SUV.
Perhaps the cop held onto the door handle, his feet on the SUV's foot ramps. Maybe he grabbed onto an overhead rack. The details still aren't clear.
What we do know is that Mr. Thomas had several outstanding warrants -- and that the Fort Worth cop chose not to let go of the vehicle. Instead of letting go of the car, the Fort Worth officer chose to pull his gun and shoot Mr. Thomas in the head. Killing Charal Thomas, 32, in front of his kids -- and as he was driving the vehicle that they were in.
Needless to say, the Fort Worth community is shocked by this incident.
There was a vigil last night on East Rosedale in Fort Worth. Candles were lit, people spoke. People are angry.
And it's not over. The identity of the Fort Worth officer hasn't been revealed because of a concern over his safety, and he already has a lawyer to speak on his behalf. According to the lawyer, the cop felt he had to shoot because his own life was in danger. No explanation yet on why he grabbed onto that SUV, filled with kids, in the first place.
This is going to be a big lawsuit. Another lawsuit against the Fort Worth Police Department for overzealous police behavior...(remember the Tazer lawsuits from last year) ....
