Warrant Division

If you have received notice that your Pantego citation is in warrant status, you must dispose of this matter immediately to avoid the possibility of arrest. Warrant Officers are assigned to actively pursue individuals in warrant status and you may be subject to arrest. These warrants are entered into a statewide computer system and are valid throughout the state and are accessible to any peace officer.

Disposing of Warrants

The most common options available to you for disposing of your warrant are (if eligible):

Appear in person and request to speak to the judge
Enrollment in community service
Payment of fine in full
Post a surety or cash escrow bond and request a new court date
Request a time payment plan
Retain the services of a bail/bonding agency
Voluntary incarceration in the Pantego Municipal Jail

If you would like to discuss which options are available to you, please email Warrant Officer Versey or call 817-617-3734 during normal business hours.

Safe Harbor Policy

The Pantego Municipal Court maintains a safe harbor policy whereby you can come to the court to work out your issues without fear of being arrested. If you are unable to pay the fine and cost for any reason, you should come to court to explain those reasons to the Judge. In certain situations, Personal Bonds may be available to have the warrants cleared or removed.
