Found a charge, a warrant, or a court date? Don't wait to see what happens. The choices you make early shape the whole case — and a DWI carries a 15-day deadline to protect your license. A free, confidential call costs nothing and can change the outcome.

Just Found Out About a Case? Do This Next

A simple order of operations for the first few days.

  1. Write down the details

    Capture the cause number, the court, the exact charge wording, and the next setting date. You'll need them for everything that follows.

  2. Don't talk about the case

    Not to police, not on a recorded jail phone, not on social media. Anything you say can become evidence.

  3. Note any deadlines

    If it's a DWI, the clock to request an ALR hearing and protect your license is only 15 days from the date of arrest.

  4. Call a defense lawyer

    Bring the details from step one. The sooner an attorney is involved, the more can be done to preserve evidence and protect your record.

Found something you didn't expect?

Bring the charge or cause number to a free consultation and Brian Foley will tell you exactly where you stand — clearly and honestly.

Frequently Asked Questions


How do I find my criminal case in Montgomery County, Texas?
Use the Montgomery County District Clerk's online Court Case Inquiry to search felony and misdemeanor cases by your name or cause number. It shows the charge, the court, your next setting, and the status of the case. You can also call the District Clerk at (936) 539-7855.
How do I find out if someone is in the Montgomery County Jail?
Search the Montgomery County Sheriff's online Jail Roster by name. It shows current inmates booked into the jail at 1 Criminal Justice Drive in Conroe. If you cannot find the person, call the jail at (936) 760-5800, as it can take time for a new booking to appear.
How do I check if I have a warrant in Montgomery County?
The Montgomery County Sheriff's Office offers an online Warrant Search. If you find an active warrant, talk to a criminal defense attorney before doing anything — in many cases a lawyer can arrange a bond and a planned surrender so you are not simply arrested and held.
Where do I handle a traffic ticket in Montgomery County?
Most traffic citations are handled in the Justice of the Peace or municipal court listed on your ticket, not the District Clerk's office. Check the court and citation number printed on the ticket. Ignoring a ticket can lead to a failure-to-appear charge and a hold on your driver's license.
