Lubbock Is Waiving Warrant Arrests For Two Weeks In October - kfyo.com

Lubbock Municipal Court is waiving arrests for unpaid citations and outstanding warrants for two weeks in October, as long as people show up in person and pay their late fees. Anyone with charges pending in Lubbock Municipal Court can head to the courthouse at 1214 14th Street between 8:30 a.m.
The push is part of the city's October Case Resolution Campaign, aimed at clearing a backlog of pending cases sitting on the court's schedule. Anyone with charges pending in Lubbock Municipal Court can head to the courthouse at 1214 14th Street between 8:30 a.m. And 4 p.m. Daily, from Thursday, October 1, through Friday, October 16. No appointment is necessary, and Spanish translation is available on site.
This is a two week window to walk in, settle up, and walk out without getting arrested for it. It matters for anyone who has been putting off a court date out of fear of getting picked up, or who just lost track of a citation buried under other bills. Clearing those cases in person also frees up docket space that has been sitting untouched.
It is a rare deal where showing up actually works in your favor instead of against you, and it only lasts sixteen days.
