Did you know that a even a minor unpaid ticket can turn into a warrant if forgotten or misplaced? If you have received a traffic ticket in Missouri City and have not taken care of paying your fines, there is still time!

Offenders will be offered the opportunity to settle their fines without going to jail during the Statewide “Warrant Round Up” that Missouri City is currently participating in.  Starting February 19 through March 13, past due fines will be accepted in person, by phone and online by individuals in an effort to help them avoid the risk of arrest by the Missouri City Police Department and their homes, schools, and places of employment.

There are more than 8,144 outstanding warrants in Missouri City that totaled more than $1,457,683 in past due fines dating all the way back to 1980.  If the fines are not settled, individuals will risk not being allowed to renew drivers licenses or be subject to be pulled over by police.
