Prepare an electronic request
The JP1 page provides a driving-safety request and instructions for filing into an existing case. Review those links and ask 940-349-3170 which filing category and attachments apply to your citation.
Save the filing acknowledgment
Do not assume a counter visit with paper copies completes the request. Keep the electronic receipt and watch for the court’s response. Use the approval order to identify the final certificate and driving-record requirements and due date.
