Mission Statement
Our mission is to provide a neutral, courteous, and
fair forum for the trial of all Class C misdemeanor offenses
arising under Texas civil and criminal statutes and city
ordinances. The judge of this Court is appointed by the
City Council of the City of Beverly Hills to preserve, protect,
and defend the United States Constitution, the Texas Constitution
and the laws of the State of Texas.
This Court and its officers are dedicated to the principals
of impartiality, fairness, integrity, separation of powers,
and judicial independence.
The Court Clerk’s office is responsible for processing
the clerical work of the court, setting trial dockets, collecting
court fines and fees, maintaining court records, and performing
administrative duties delegated by the Judge.
The court is staffed by a court administrator, a deputy
clerk, and a city marshal. Clerks are not licensed attorneys
and cannot provide legal advice.
Jurisdiction:
The Municipal Court has jurisdiction over all Class C Misdemeanors
issued by City police officers within the territorial limits

NOTICE TO ALL PERSONS WHO HAVE BEEN ISSUED CITATIONS:
The Municipal Court cannot process your citation until the
original citation has been received by the court, which
usually takes one business day from the time the citation
is issued. You must plea or appear within ten business days.
If you fail to appear or plea within that time, a warrant
is issued for your arrest for Failure to Appear. (All
juveniles or recipients of any alcohol related offenses
are required to plea before the Judge in open-court and
cannot plea by mail.) Once a warrant is activated,
the Beverly Hills City Marshal or any other law enforcement
agency may arrest you.
Expect to pay full fines at time of entering
your plea.
