FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

1. What is the fine amount of my ticket?

Click here for speeding fines and here for all other violations.

2. What are my options?

You have several options in handling your ticket.  To simply make a payment, click here for our several payment options. Online and telephone payments constitute a plea of no contest and are entered as a guilty judgment. The judgment is reported to DPS as a conviction on your driving record.

If eligible, there are two options available if you are wanting to keep the offense off of your driving record. We offer the options of deferred disposition or taking a driving safety class

3. How can I check to see if my ticket is in warrant status?

Warrant listings can be found here and are updated weekly.

4. When is my court date?

You are not automatically given a court date when you receive a citation. You are given an appearance date meaning that you must appear either in person or by mail within 15 days of receiving your citation. The state of Texas has special requirements for juvenile defendants that can be found here. Faxing or calling the court do not constitute an appearance.

5. Can I get an extension over the phone?

No. A request for extension must be made in person.

6. I’d like to talk to the judge. How can I do that?

The judges have walk in appointments Monday through Friday at 7:30 a.m. and 1 p.m. and must be scheduled in person and in advance
