CREDIT
FOR TIME SERVED
The
Judge will only grant credit for time served if the Defendant
was incarcerated on Town of Trophy Club charges. Credit will
not be extended for time a defendant spends in jail on unrelated
charges or because he was placed in jail on another city’s
charges (i.e., Keller, Roanoke, Westlake, Denton County, etc.).
An
Incarcerated Time Served Request is generally requested either
in jail or after release by formal written request or on the
Incarcerated Incarcerated
Time Served Request*.
If
in jail, they will forward all necessary paperwork to the
Court for approval. Should the Defendant want to request credit
for time served after he has been released from jail on a
promise to appear, this can also be accomplished with the
Court during the timeframe that is specified on the bond.
The
written request must include the following: Date of Request,
Defendant Full Name, Date of Birth, Facility & Address, Telephone/Fax
Number, Date Incarceration Began, Expected Release Date, Cause
Number(s) and plea (No Contest or Guilty).
This
is NOT the appropriate venue to request that a Defendant
be able to lay out a fine prior to going to jail. This request
must be made in person at the Court and transport to the Denton
County Jail arranged.
Nothing
contained herein is intended to be nor should be construed
as legal advice and should not be relied upon as such.
