Who Issues Warrants in Eagle Pass
In Texas an arrest warrant is signed by a judge. For Eagle Pass that means the Maverick County District Court, which hears felonies, divorces, land title cases and civil cases without a dollar limit; the County Courts and Justice Courts issue their own warrants on the cases before them. A city with a municipal court of its own issues warrants on the tickets and ordinance cases it tries.
When a defendant misses a court date the judge issues a bench warrant, and either kind of warrant lives in the court file of the case, kept by the District Clerk for district court cases and the County Clerk for county court cases.
