Traffic Court Records in Concho County
Traffic venue depends on the issuing court. Judge Scott Spoonts's countywide Justice of the Peace handles justice traffic and Class C matters. The JP office is at 152 N. Roberts, Paint Rock, and its phone is 325-732-4706. Eden Municipal Court at 120 Paint Rock Street handles Eden municipal and Class C cases; its phone is 325-869-2211.
A traffic docket may show the citation number, charge, plea, setting, disposition, costs, and judgment events. The JP or municipal clerk keeps that file.
Concho Traffic Venue Comes First
The citation is the best routing document. Read the court name, response deadline, location, and number before calling or paying. No municipal court row was located for Paint Rock, so a ticket near Paint Rock should not be routed to an invented city court. Check whether it names the countywide JP.
Use the issuing venue on the ticket. The JP and Eden Municipal Court are separate custodians.
Do not send money until the destination, case number, and amount are verified.
How to Look Up a Traffic Ticket
No Concho-specific public citation search fields were exposed. Begin with the citation. Call the JP at 325-732-4706 or Eden at 325-869-2211. Counter and mail channels remain available under each court's instructions. re:SearchTX can be checked for available Texas data, but direct court confirmation controls.
- Read the citation number and identify the issuing court.
- Call that court to confirm the case number, amount, and response deadline.
- Use the official payment link only after the venue and amount match.
- Visit the counter or follow the court's mail process if online access fails.
- Record the setting and request a copy from the same custodian.
Judge Spoonts's Concho Ticket Path
The official Concho County JP page publishes bureau code 7582928 and a payment link. It also warns callers to verify the fine amount and case number. That call is part of the lookup.
No local fine chart, citation-number format, course fee, or deferred-disposition fee was published. Ask the clerk to read back the case number, named court, charge, live setting, plea status, amount due, and proper payment route. The published bureau code identifies the JP payment destination, but it does not prove that a particular ticket belongs there or state the case balance.
A person without the ticket should still begin by identifying the issuing agency and likely venue. The public pages did not expose a name-and-birth-date search, a court dropdown, or a citation results screen. Because those fields were not documented, direct phone or counter contact is the supported fallback. If the clerk cannot locate the matter, ask whether the citation has posted and when another check is appropriate.
Finding Your Traffic Court Date
Read the appearance date or response deadline on the citation, then confirm what it means with the issuing court. A deadline to answer is not always a trial date. Record the case number, date, time, place, setting type, and response instruction.
| Citation Number | Use the exact number on the ticket; no local format was published. |
|---|---|
| Court | Countywide JP or Eden Municipal Court. |
| Date & Time | Appearance deadline or setting confirmed by the court. |
| Location | The place stated by the issuing court. |
| Status | Pending, paid, disposed, or other status maintained by the court. |
Eden Traffic Cases Stay Separate
Eden Municipal Court says cases cannot be resolved by telephone. A person must handle the matter in person or through U.S. Mail, though the phone is useful to confirm dates. Juveniles age 16 and younger must appear with a parent or guardian. The same applies to 17-year-old minors with alcohol violations.
The Eden page exposes an online fine-payment link but does not publish the fields inside its payment form. Confirm that the citation names Eden Municipal Court before using it. Calling 325-869-2211 can clarify the mailing or appearance procedure, yet the city's no-phone-resolution rule means the call itself does not dispose of the case. Keep copies of anything mailed and allow time for the court to receive it before the printed deadline.
Paying or Contesting a Ticket
Payment can carry a plea or conviction consequence under Texas law, so it is not a neutral reservation. Contesting generally requires a plea and compliance with the court's process. Read the citation and contact the court before the deadline.
| Paying the Ticket | Contesting the Ticket |
|---|---|
| May enter a plea and conviction event | Requires a plea and court process |
| Use the case-specific deadline and amount | Respond by the citation's deadline |
| Use only the verified venue link | Follow that court's written or in-person method |
Missed date: Contact the issuing court at once. No Concho-specific hold fee or exact local consequence was found, so ask the court what the file shows and what response is required.
Concho Options Need Court Approval
Deferred disposition and a driving safety course may be available, but eligibility can depend on the charge, history, timing, and judge. No Concho eligibility checklist or local fee was found. Ask before taking a course or sending a request.
No official local photo-enforcement program or local license-hold amount was identified. A generic description of a Texas option cannot establish eligibility in a specific Concho case. Ask what plea, application, supporting record, course provider, deadline, and payment the issuing court requires. Do not enroll or pay a third party on the assumption that the court will approve the option later.
A failure-to-appear notice also needs venue confirmation. The research did not identify a local OmniBase amount, added charge, warrant policy, or release procedure that applies to every Concho ticket. Contact the court shown on the notice, ask what entries are on the case docket, and request written instructions for resolving them. Prompt contact is important, but no outcome should be promised.
Court Traffic Record vs Driver Record
The court traffic record belongs to the JP or municipal clerk and can show the citation, charge, plea, setting, disposition, costs, and judgment events. A Texas driver record belongs to the Department of Public Safety and reflects license history and court-reported convictions. These are separate files with separate custodians.
A disposition may reach each record at a different time. Ask each custodian about its own file if they differ.
| Court Traffic Record | Driver Record | |
|---|---|---|
| Kept By | JP or municipal clerk | Texas Department of Public Safety |
| Shows | Citation, plea, setting, disposition, and costs | License history and reported convictions |
| How to Get It | Issuing court lookup or clerk request | DPS driver-record request channel |
Fees and Copies
Verified justice-court amounts come from Texas Local Government Code Chapter 118. Request the copy from the JP. Eden did not publish a copy amount, so call for a current quote.
| Item | Fee | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| JP certified copy | $2 first page; $0.25 additional page | Confirm format with the JP. |
| JP transcript after judgment | $10 | Statutory docket-entry transcript. |
| Eden copy or certification | Not published | Call 325-869-2211. |
Request Concho Traffic Copies
Give the custodian the exact citation or case number, name, charge, date range, and document needed. State whether a plain or certified copy is required. Use the Paint Rock JP office for its cases and Eden Municipal Court for Eden matters.
The fallback chain is the citation, official venue link, phone confirmation, counter or mail process, and written request. For a JP certified court paper, the researched statutory amount is $2 for the first page and $0.25 for each additional page. A JP transcript of docket entries after judgment is $10, while an abstract of judgment is a different $5 service. Eden did not post a copy or certification amount, so request a quote before sending payment.
Specify whether the request seeks the citation, docket entries, plea, setting notice, disposition, judgment, or payment history. Those items are parts of the court case file. They are not a DPS driver record. If certification is needed, say so when requesting the copy and inspect the returned certification or seal.
