The Warrant Division is responsible for clearing all warrants directed to our precinct. Most of these warrants are filed as a result of a bad check or an unpaid traffic citation issued by the Highway Patrol, Collin County Sheriff's Office or a Deputy from Precinct 1. The Constable affords each defendant with a courtesy notice in the mail informing individuals that a warrant has been issued for their arrest. If a defendant fails to respond, the warrant division then begins actively pursuing the defendant. Through a variety of different techniques these defendants are located and arrested.

The Constable is concerned that the merchants in Precinct 1 have a way of recovering their loss due to bad checks. The Constable knows that putting the defendants in jail does not help when you, the merchant or individual have suffered a financial loss. Defendants are placed in jail when all other means have been exhausted.

Duties of our clerical staff include assisting the general public, computer input of all warrants received from the courts, mailing notification of warrants to defendants and compiling statistical warrant information.
