PAY UP or GO TO JAIL
Your time is up! That message will spread across Texas during the month of March. Municipal and Justice of Peace courts are seeking compliance as law enforcement officers from across the State of Texas join together in the Statewide Warrant Roundup beginning March 6, 2009.
Over the past several years, cities have joined together to hold warrant roundups at the same time. Last year over 60 jurisdictions from the Houston, Austin, Dallas, Fort Worth, and Waco areas held roundups on the same day and had great results!

They found that working together provided greater media attention and created the public impression that criminals had no place to hide.
The Statewide Warrant Roundup is scheduled for March 6- 16, 2009. All courts, police departments, constables and marshal services are invited to join this statewide effort. By joining together, defendants will understand that they must take care of their business with the court, or the court will hold them responsible!
Each agency is required to track and report statistics that will be compiled and released to the media at the end of the roundup.
