The Dallas County DA was expected to provide information about court schedules for those impacted by the temporary closure.
Officials did not say how the threat was received or if it was directed toward any particular part of the 11-story building.
Earlier this year the building was evacuated after someone reported smoke on the 7th floor. The smoke turned out to be from burning food.
