The Fort Worth Municipal Court is holding its first Warrant Forgiveness event of 2025 on Saturday, January 25, from 9 a.m. to noon at the A.D. Marshall Public Safety and Courts Building, located at 1000 Throckmorton Street in downtown Fort Worth.
The event is open to anyone with outstanding citations filed with the Fort Worth Municipal Court. Attendees can address their cases without fear of arrest, as the court operates as a Safe Harbor Court. This initiative provides an opportunity to resolve cases and may offer alternatives such as community service or fine reductions based on the individual’s ability to pay.
Up to 150 individuals will be assisted on a first-come, first-served basis. Eligible cases include Class C criminal cases, such as traffic violations, ordinance violations, and penal code violations.
“I encourage anyone who has an outstanding citation with the Fort Worth Municipal Court to contact us immediately so we can provide options to move those cases to a final resolution,” said Court Director William Rumuly.
