Warrant Round-Up Beginning This Weekend In Frisco

FRISCO, TX -- The Frisco Police Department and Frisco Municipal Court will participate in the annual Great Texas Warrant Round this weekend. Frisco PD's Warrants Division will be stepping up efforts to actively serve warrants beginning Saturday, March 9, the department said in a news release.

"The roundup is designed to target thousands of defendants with warrants from more than 250 participating jurisdictions. Individuals with warrant(s) are encouraged to contact the court(s) that issued the warrant(s) to resolve their cases voluntarily before they are compelled to appear by arrest," Frisco PD added.

Persons with warrants are subject to arrest at work, home, or wherever they may be found. Persons that have a warrant issued in the City of Frisco should contact the Frisco Municipal Court promptly to resolve the citation, Frisco PD added. Individuals may inquire or pay fines online at http://www.fmcpayments.com or contact the courts by phone at 972.292.5555. Court dates may be made in person at the court, which is located at 6865 Main Street, Frisco, Texas 75034.

Under Texas Law, individuals that appear before a court and make a good faith effort to resolve their outstanding Class C warrants are afforded safe harbor and not subject to arrest, Frisco PD said. Additionally, if a judgment is rendered against an individual who is unable to pay the judgment, the individual may request a judge to assess their ability to pay and offer alternative means to satisfy the judgment, according to Frisco PD.
