Oxford Municipal Court Offers Warrant Amnesty for Misdemeanors Through Feb. 28, 2026

Oxford Municipal Court is running a warrant-amnesty program that allows people with eligible misdemeanor warrants to resolve cases without arrest, added fees, bail or jail time through Feb. 28, 2026, the court’s social-media announcement states. The in-person program operates at the courthouse address listed for the city: 72 F.D. Buddy East Parkway, Suite 200 in Oxford.

Participants should go to the Oxford Municipal Court Clerk’s office; the clerk will remove the warrant and issue a new court date, court messaging explains. “If you have a current misdemeanor warrant, you can go to the Oxford Municipal Court Clerk, and they will remove your warrant and give you a new court date,” the court’s notice says. Court officials framed the effort as lenient but not unlimited: “It’s not a free pass, but a second chance.” The announcement also states, “There is no additional fee for this.”

The court’s social post and subsequent local reporting name the program as a second-chance effort and urge people to handle outstanding misdemeanor warrants directly rather than involving other residents. The court’s Facebook post, cited in local coverage, encouraged people with open misdemeanor warrants to resolve them during the amnesty and reminded the public that administrative offices were closed Feb. 16 for Presidents Day, a closure that falls inside the amnesty window.

There is a discrepancy in published social posts about timing. An Instagram post used the phrase “Warrant Amnesty Holiday” and lists a date range of Dec. 1, 2024 through Jan. 31, 2025, while the court’s Facebook post and follow-up local reporting indicate the program runs through Feb. 28, 2026. A fragment of a Facebook message also uses the wording “Non-DWI Bench Warrant Amnesty Program” with a 28, 2026 date fragment. The court did not provide a full list of eligible or excluded offenses, nor did the social post specify hours, phone contact, or whether underlying fines or restitution are waived.

Warrant-amnesty programs typically let people clear low-level warrants by appearing at court and addressing the underlying case, reducing immediate arrest risk and some collateral consequences; local reporting noted that framework when the Oxford announcement was posted. As a point of comparison, College Station and Brazos County’s recent amnesty ran Feb. 9-27 and cleared 75 warrants valued at almost $20,000, and Municipal Court Judge Ed Spillane there said the program has cleared thousands of warrants since 2007. Those College Station figures apply to that jurisdiction only and are provided for context.

Oxford residents with outstanding misdemeanor warrants who want to use the amnesty should visit the Municipal Court Clerk at 72 F.D. Buddy East Parkway, Suite 200 to confirm eligibility, hours and any documentation required. The court’s social post left several practical questions unanswered, whether the program covers all misdemeanor bench warrants or excludes DWI-related matters, what happens to outstanding fines and court costs, and whether payment plans are available, so callers and visitors should request those specifics at the Clerk’s office. The municipal announcement emphasized resolving warrants in person during the program and framed the effort as a second chance to address open misdemeanor matters without immediate arrest or extra fees.
