HARRIS COUNTY – Tow Hearings

The owner or operator of a vehicle that has been removed (towed) and placed in a vehicle storage facility without consent of the owner or operator of the vehicle, or booted without consent of the owner or operator of the vehicle, is entitled to a hearing on whether probable cause existed for the removal and placement or booting of the vehicle. Any Justice Court in the county in which the vehicle was towed or booted may hear the case; however, the Harris County Justice Courts have enacted a local rule to govern the filing of these hearings.
