Austin Municipal Court update

Austin Municipal Court at 700 East Seventh St. will permanently close on Wednesday, March 18, with court services closed at all locations on March 19 and 20 “to accommodate the move,” according to a March 4 memo. On Monday, March 23, court will resume at 6800 Burleson Road, Building 310, Suite 175. The Municipal Court will also maintain a downtown presence at City Hall, where people can contest civil parking violations. That office will also open on Monday, March 23, and will operate from 9:00 a.m. until noon and 1 p.m. until 6 p.m. The memo goes on to explain that the court will be flexible with people who are confused by the new location, and will work to reset court appearances for anyone missing a court date because they went to the wrong location.
