Dallas Marshal’s Office help fight hunger during warrant round-up

The City of Dallas is partnering with the North Texas Food Bank for warrant round-up of individuals with outstanding arrest warrants. Beginning Saturday Feb. 9, defendants can bring three canned goods to court to eliminate a $50 warrant fee, ahead of the round-up in early March. Donations will be accepted until Feb. 13.

“The Marshal’s Office wants to encourage individuals and businesses who have outstanding issues in City of Dallas Municipal Courts to resolve them during this period,” said Gary Lindsey, City Marshal.

During Feb. 9-13, the Dallas Municipal Court located at 2014 Main Street, will extend its hours and be open as followed:

9 a.m. to 1 p.m., Saturday, Feb. 9
12 p.m. to 4 p.m., Sunday, Feb. 10
7:30 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Monday-Wednesday, Feb. 11-13

Individuals coming to Court who want to resolve their citations will not be arrested for outstanding warrants or outstanding citations.
