or the mentally ill and mentally re****ed, juvenile work permits and temporary guardianships for special purposes. The county judge may perform marriages. A county judge in Texas may have judicial responsibility for certain criminal, civil and probate matters - responsibility for these functions vary from county to county.

The county judge is also head of civil defense and disaster relief, county welfare and in counties under 225,000 population, the judge prepares the county budget along with the county auditor or county clerk.
