Third Annual Great Texas Warrant Roundup

The City of Forest Hill will join more than 250 jurisdictions across Texas to host the third annual Great Texas Warrant Roundup beginning Saturday, March 6. The roundup is designed to target thousands of defendants with traffic, parking, city ordinance, penal code and higher charge warrants from participating jurisdictions. It is believed to be the largest joint operation of its kind with arrests expected to continue for several days. Specific information as to the number of outstanding warrants, how to take care of warrants prior to arrest, and any other special roundup activities or events may be obtained by contacting the Municipal Court at (817) 568-3046. Affected persons are urged to contact the Municipal Court office during the next two weeks to dispose of their cases voluntarily to avoid the inconvenience and embarrassment of arrest at home or work in front of family, friends or co-workers.
