Pay Your Fine Instead of Doing Time!

Municipal Services Bureau ("MSB") is teaming with Texas jurisdictions statewide to remind people with outstanding warrants to pay their unresolved fines and fees while they still have the chance. The process, known as "Warrant Round-Up," allows individuals a grace period before constables in each participating jurisdiction begin knocking on doors and enforcing the warrants. MSB collects delinquent court fines and fees throughout the state of Texas and nationwide.

"We are giving defendants the chance to pay off their balances before the annual statewide Warrant Round-Up begins. If you receive a letter or a phone call from us, please take advantage of the opportunity to clear your name," said Bruce Cummings, Chief Executive Officer of MSB. The Warrant Round-Up starts February 25^th, so defendants with outstanding fines still have time to resolve their obligations before facing the threat of arrest.

"We're helping both jurisdictions and defendants expedite the process of resolving these cases, especially since it may be a forgotten fine or fee," Cummings added. The Company has already started sending letter notifications to defendants. MSB will continue to collect on all cases in a delinquent status to increase compliance for the courts.
