Animal court rules on city pet law offenses
By Vincent T. Davis - Express-NewsEvery Friday morning, residents cited for breaking city pet laws step into animal court to have their cases heard before a judge, and depending on their plea, a jury.
The judgments take place at Municipal Court No. 4, at 401 S. Frio St., for violations that include not having license tags, severe bites and misdemeanor cruelty cases.
