Show All Answers
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.
