City Prosecutors
The City Prosecutors represent the City of Amarillo and the State of Texas in criminal matters before the City of Amarillo Municipal Court. The City Prosecutor does not represent individual persons appearing before the court and therefore cannot provide legal advice on criminal legal matters. If you believe you need advice on how to resolve your case, consider consulting with a defense attorney.
If you wish to discuss the merits of your claim with the City Prosecutor, you must first set the matter for trial. The prosecutor does not discuss pending cases over the phone, or correspond with you via email.
To set your matter for trial, please contact the Amarillo Municipal Court at 806-378-3082. To schedule a conference with the Prosecutor, please contact the City’s Prosecutor’s Office at 806-378-3016.
