About this guide

Trophy Club, Texas, in Denton County, has about 14,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). A traffic ticket written in Trophy Club is a court case in the County Courts and Justice Courts; a city with a municipal court tries its own, and the conviction it ends in goes on the driving record kept by the Texas Department of Public Safety. This guide says which court takes the ticket, who writes them and where the driving record lives.

This guide covers where tickets go, who writes them, the driving record and common questions.

Where a Ticket Written in Trophy Club Goes

The court records page SearchSystems verified for the county is at dentoncounty.gov/920/Judicial-Law-Enforcement-Records-Search.

Texas has no single public index of every trial court case; each court's records are looked up through that court.

Who Writes the Tickets in Trophy Club

The Denton County Sheriff's Office and the agency that reports for Trophy Club (filed by the FBI as Trophy Club Police Department) write the traffic tickets in and around Trophy Club.

The FBI's agency list also places 12 other agencies and two campus police departments in Denton County (the arrest records guide names each one).

The Celina Police Department, the Prosper Police Department, the Plano Police Department and five more are each listed by the FBI across several counties including Denton County, so their arrests are not broken out for Denton County here.

The Driving Record and the Texas Department of Public Safety

The driving record is a separate document from the court file. It is kept by the Texas Department of Public Safety, which adds each conviction the court reports and handles suspensions; the court does not issue driving records.

Paying a ticket is a conviction, reported to the Texas Department of Public Safety like any other; contesting it means a plea of not guilty entered with the court by the date on the ticket.

A DWI is a criminal charge rather than a ticket, with its own license case before the Department of Public Safety (see Trophy Club DUI).
