Beginning Saturday, June 11, 2016 Seagoville officers will arrest people with outstanding warrants pending before the Seagoville Municipal Court.
Law enforcement agencies and cities throughout the state conduct roundups at different times throughout the year, focusing on violators with outstanding Class C misdemeanor warrants; most of which are traffic-related. Those arrested will be taken before court judges for arraignment and disposition of their cases. Full payment or suitable arrangement for full payment will be due at that time. Other options may include a cash bond, a Magistrate Court appearance or attorney representation.
Notices have been mailed to persons with warrants active against them. Officials noted that although the concentration is on Class C charges, higher charge warrants may also be served.
People with outstanding city citations are strongly encouraged to appear in person or contact the municipal court in order to avoid the embarrassment of being arrested at home, work or school.
