Local Government is separated by three branches of government, just like our State and Federal Government structure. These three separate but equal branches of government are:
The Municipal Court and its officers represent the Judicial Branch of the City of Helotes government. This Court and its officers are dedicated to the principles of impartiality, fairness, integrity, separation of powers, and judicial independence.
These are the principles upon which our country was founded and to which the Court is committed in its role as the Judicial Branch of this local government.
The Helotes Municipal Court has a mission to serve the citizens of Helotes and the general public in a fair, courteous, and professional manner.
Our mission is met by striving on excellence in customer service and allowing a forum of equal justice for everyone to experience a fair and neutral process in finding a resolution for cases filed with the court.
