Lubbock Municipal Court Offering October Case Resolution Campaign - KCBD

Lubbock Municipal Court Offering October Case Resolution Campaign - KCBD

Lubbock Municipal Court is running an October Case Resolution Campaign that lets people with unpaid Class C misdemeanor citations and warrants clear their records without getting arrested. The program runs Thursday, October 1 through Friday, October 16, weekdays from 8:30 a.m.

The program runs Thursday, October 1 through Friday, October 16, weekdays from 8:30 a.m. To 4:00 p.m. It covers only cases filed in Lubbock Municipal Court, so if your ticket or warrant originated somewhere else, this does not apply to you. That includes unpaid traffic tickets sitting in the system.

The deal is straightforward: show up voluntarily during those hours, and you will not be arrested. People who have been avoiding the courthouse because they are nervous about what happens when they walk through the door now have a two-week window to handle things without that risk. Bring identification, according to the city's notice, so do not show up empty-handed.

For folks in Lubbock who have let a ticket slide long enough that it turned into a warrant, this is a rare chance to get ahead of it on your own terms instead of waiting for the situation to find you first. Warrants for Class C misdemeanors can show up in background checks and complicate everything from job applications to apartment rentals.

Lubbock Municipal Court is open for inquiries on this program Monday through Friday during the campaign window.
