If you lost the traffic ticket you were given, you need to contact the court with jurisdiction AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. If you remember the name of the court that was on the citation, that's great. If not, you will need to do a little research to figure out which court has jurisdiction. The first thing to do is determine what county you were in when you received the ticket. If you know that, you can use the Texas Courts Guide related link to figure out which court has jurisdiction, or at least narrow it down to a couple. You can then call the likely court or courts, and they should be able to look up the citation by your name, driver's license number, or vehicle information, and tell you how to pay it.
In Texas, traffic tickets are generally handled by Justices of the Peace or Municipal Courts. If you were in the city limits of a particular town, and that town has a municipal court, it is likely that court has jurisdiction. If you were in an unincorporated area of the county, or in a town without a municipal court, it is likely a Justice Court that has jurisdiction. Some counties have multiple Justice Courts, so you may need to view a Justice Court precinct map online (if available) or call a couple Justice Courts to find the right one.
On the Texas Courts Guide related link, select the appropriate county from the "Directory of Texas Courts by County" menu, and a directory of courts in that county will appear. Scroll down to the Justice Court and Municipal Court listings. Some Texas courts offer online payment services for traffic tickets. Often, you will need a citation number to use these services, but some allow you to look up citations by name, driver's license, or vehicle information. If you think you have found the right court, click on the "Online Resources" option and scroll down to see if that court has an online fine payment option. If not, call the phone number listed for the court to have someone look-up your citation.
You need to do this right away as there is only a limited period of time after a ticket is issued that you can pay the fine and avoid a late penalty payment. Things could get even worse if you don't contact the court before the citation hearing date. On the other hand, if you just got the ticket yesterday, you may want to wait a couple days until the ticket has been entered into the court's system.
We should get a raffle ticket.I found a golden ticket in a tin of Billy Tonka's soup.She got a parking ticket yesterday.
The fine for an open container in Texas will depend on the city/county in which you got the ticket. You will need to call the courthouse in the county where you got the ticket to get a price.
contact the court clerkBUT I LOST THE TICKET AND I DONT KNOW WHICH STATE I WAS IN THINK CALIFORNIA BUT NOT 100% POSITIVE HOW DO I LOCATE MY INFORMATIONback track the route you took when you got the ticket. then stop at the area you got the ticket and ask someone exactly 'where' you are...............or, if the state issues warrants, and when you get stopped again, the police will probaby drag you off to the court jurisdiction from which you got your ticket.............Now we come to the 'citation number'.............if you don't know 'where' you got the ticket, what good is knowing the citation number going to do ?????????????
It depends where you got the ticket. In Texas they have no idea unless you are convicted and it goes on your record, or if an accident was involved. I am a Dallas Fort Worth area traffic ticket and warrant attorney. Contact me if you need help at richie@richardhmartin.com or www.richardhmartin.com.

No, you would still need to pay the ticket.
The state of CA. will run your name and the ticket will appear in Texas. Years ago, you could get away with. Now they are all connected.
No. In fact I just got a 180$ speeding ticket in Texas and they didn't even check my insurance because it was an out of state vehicle. However, if they ran your insurance when you got pulled over (out of state vehicles sometimes they dont) then it will be reported to your insurance.
It depends on the city where you got the citation.
I just got a ticket for failing to yield but I didn't kill anyone. Indeed I was looking and made sure I was fine to go but still got the ticket. You could be prosecuted for "negligent homicide."
