If any person fails to appear before the court, either in compliance
with a personal bond or as directed by notice from the municipal court
clerk’s office, a warrant for his/her arrest shall be issued
and a special expense of $50.00 shall be charged for the issuance
of such warrant, which sum shall be deposited in the general fund.
The fee shall not be refundable except on the finding by the court
that notice was not properly given.
(Ordinance O-2019-0813-D adopted 8/13/19)
The municipal court shall collect a special dismissal expense,
as allowed in the Texas Transportation Code, from each defendant as
a condition of dismissal of any case against the defendant because
of actions by or on behalf of the defendant subsequent to the date
of the alleged offense, such as the completion by the defendant of
a safe driving course. Said sum shall be paid into the general fund
of the city.
