Municipal Court launches text message alerts for cases in collections

Published on September 30, 2025

The City of Fort Worth, in collaboration with the law firm Linebarger Goggan Blair & Sampson, LLP, will introduce a text messaging service in early October to enhance service to constituents and improve communication regarding outstanding Municipal Court matters.

This innovative service will be provided free of charge to constituents. It will enable the firm to send text message alerts directly to individuals with pending cases, providing them with timely information to help resolve their matters efficiently.

Court users are encouraged to contact the collection agency to discuss payment plans and payment options.

To help the public verify the legitimacy of these messages and alleviate concerns about scams, users can visit the Court's website.

"Text messaging has become a widely used and preferred method of communication. By adding this feature, the Fort Worth Municipal Court aims to improve public engagement, reduce delays and provide timely reminders to help individuals resolve outstanding obligations," said Court Director William Rumuly.
