    I wouldn't say it was a Pleasent visit because someone broken into my car. I was already aggy…read morebecause the thief could've just open the door to my untinted and unlock vehicle. So I came to this station to make a report. It wasn't any cars outside and I assume it was closed down. Luckily my friend jumped out and it open. Officer Anderson took me and my friend report on this freezing night. And he even came outside to see the damage. Very nice guy! He called once I got home to verify my plates and make sure I made it.

    On August 11, 2025, while riding my bicycle on South Braeswood, I was struck from behind by a…read morespeeding vehicle. Following the impact, the driver delayed braking for an estimated 4-5 seconds. As a result, I sustained two fractured and compressed vertebrae, a significant hematoma in my right gluteal muscle (requiring two surgical procedures), severe damage to my right hand, and extensive road rash. Two Houston police officers responded to the scene. I explained that I was struck from behind and was positioned in the left lane to access the bike trail. However, the officers informed me that the 19-year-old driver asserted that I had swerved into his path. The officers stated they were uncertain about the incident and would not issue any citations, appearing content to close the case without thorough investigation. A proper investigation would have revealed the driver's untruthfulness. Had I swerved, the impact would have occurred on my left side; instead, I was injured on my right hip, as evidenced by my surgical scars. The officers even visited the hospital to confirm my understanding that no citations would be issued. I believe that had I been traveling in a car or on foot citations would have been issued. It appears that cyclists are not afforded the same level of attention or protection. I was a victim!

    Yours truly got called in to do her civic duty. I may not serve in the military, but I can serve…read morethis country by aiding in giving people their due process. This place is way the heck out there and is actually a police station! As it was originally built for and still is a police station, things get weird for jurors from here on out... The purpose of this court is to provide jury trials for those who wish to contest minor offenses like very minor assaults (pushing people), traffic moving violations, etc. Therefore, you will only be needed for one business day. SCORE! ARRIVAL TIME: They request that you be promptly there at 9am, but the guy who manages jurors is super friendly and is understanding if you get there at 9 WITHOUT that form filled out. UPON ARRIVAL: You will encounter a security guard and a metal detector. They will have you pass TSA-style sans shoes through that detector and inspect whatever you brought with you. JUROR WAITING ROOM: They have a super tiny room in which they keep about 2 dozen jurors who have also been summoned. There are only two AC units, and so it can get stuffy. There's hardly any room to walk, but you'll survive. They have a TV in the corner of the room that softly plays CNN. REFRESHMENTS / BATHROOM: I'm sure there is a bathroom. I didn't check it out and therefore can't review. Outside of the juror waiting room are two vending machines -- one for sodas and water, one for mainly junk food snacks. Bring some pocket change. THE COURTROOM: We were called into the court room at 11am. (So, note to self, bring something to do or to read.) We were promptly notified by the Honorable Judge that we would not be needed as jurors for the remainder of the day, that she had been able to settle anything without needing jurors. As it is a police station, there is a huge pylon in the middle of the courtroom that may make it hard for you to see the judge... EXIT PROCESS: We then were escorted out of the room. The guy who manages jurors met us. He had us sign something that acknowledged we showed. You can choose to get a $6 check in the mail as compensation or choose to have it donated back to the City of Houston, but not as a tax write-off. This guy will give you a certificate of gratitude for your time and can fill out an excuse for work, if need be. SPECIAL NOTE -- PLEASE READ: This guy said that even if you serve the Municipal Courts, that does not exempt you from serving at the Downtown Court for more complex (read: lengthier) trials in the same calendar year. Be advised!

    This court annex 20 is wayyyy better than downtown. Parking is free and wide open. Inside court…read morehouse to settle your traffic ticket is efficient no long lines nor long waits.
