Our mission is to handle violations in accordance with state law and city ordinances, and to see that every person is treated fairly. If you have received a ticket or citation from a McAllen peace officer, a McAllen ISD peace officer, STC police officer at the McAllen campus or a McAllen code enforcement officer, please contact the Municipal Court.
