San Patricio County Court at Law

Misdemeanor Bond Returnable Information

Attention:  Attorneys and Bondsman

Effective as of February 7, 2023

San Patricio County Courts at Law revised operating procedures:

Bond Returnable court dates will now be conducted online.  All persons arrested for Class A or Class B misdemeanor criminal offenses filed in the San Patricio County Courts at Law will receive a Misdemeanor Bond Returnable Date upon being released from the San Patricio County Jail. 

On a Defendant’s Bond Returnable date, they are required to check online at the San Patricio County Clerk’s website to see if a case has been filed.  The Bond Returnable dockets will be posted on both the San Patricio County Clerk’s website (http://www.co.san-patricio.tx.us/page/sanpatricio.County.Clerk) and the San Patricio County Court at Law’s website (http://www.sanpatricioccal.org).  The dockets will be organized by the Bond Returnable Date.  If a case has been filed by the San Patricio County Attorney, then it will be assigned an Arraignment Court Date.  With the creation of the San Patricio County Court at Law No. 2, cases will be assigned as follows:

Cause numbers ending with a –A will be assigned to CCAL No. 1.

Cause numbers ending with a –B will be assigned to CCAL No. 2.

Defendants with multiple cases that are filed shall be assigned to one court.  The Court assigned the defendant’s first cause number filed will be assigned the additional causes notwithstanding the case number ending.

Operational Procedures for County Court at Law No. 1:   

Attorneys representing defendants should e-file a Notice of Appearance of Counsel and provide a courtesy copy to the court.  If you and your client wish to be excused from making an appearance, then you also need to e-file a Waiver of Arraignment 72 hours prior to the arraignment court date.  If you file the proper documents timely, then the defendant and attorney are excused from making an appearance and a copy of the pre-trial court date will be mailed to you at the address provided in your Notice of Appearance of Counsel.  If you are a court-appointed attorney who received the appointment prior to the arraignment date, then you do not need to make an appearance and a copy of the defendant’s pre-trial court date will be mailed to you.
