What the court says you can do
Officials say people who attend can ask about outstanding warrants and fines, start clearing cases, and work on driver’s license holds tied to Dallas County District Court. The sheriff’s office is urging residents not to put those cases off.
Amnesty Friday covers only this one day. Fordyce sits in the heart of Dallas County, with nearby drivers from Sparkman, Carthage and the surrounding rural routes often using the same courthouse for district court business.
