Fort Worth Municipal Court will observe Municipal Court Week Nov. 6-10 at the A.D. Marshall Public Safety and Courts Building, 1000 Throckmorton St.
“Municipal Court is essential to a free and just society,” Chief Judge Danny Rodgers said. “Our court will serve over 200,000 people in any given year, which is more than all of the other courts in Tarrant County combined. Municipal Court Week is an excellent opportunity for everyone to learn more about the judicial system as a whole and our court in particular. We hope you will come by and see us this week. You may be surprised by what you learn.”
