1. What is the fine amount for my particular citation?

Information on your fine and court cost can be obtained by calling the Municipal Court at 903-892-7295 or 903-892-7187 during regular hours (Monday through Friday from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm). Have your citation number available when calling.

2. Can I get an extension to pay my fine by phone?

No. Extensions cannot be granted over the phone. You must come to the court window to request more time to pay a fine. Failure to respond by the due date on the ticket will result in a charge of Violation of Promise to Appear being filed against you and warrants for your arrest will be issued with additional fees.

3. Can I change my court date?

Yes. Court dates are not set over the phone. You must appear in person to get a court setting.

4. What are my plea options?

• Guilty – You admit that you committed the act
• Nolo Contendere – You do not contest the charge against you
• Not Guilty – You are denying guilt

5. What if I am a juvenile?

Juveniles must appear in person before the Municipal Court judge, accompanied by a parent or guardian. Notice of their court date and time will be mailed by the clerk to the address shown on the citation.
