Public Safety Report System

The Public Safety Report System was implemented April 1, 2022. Magistrates must consider a PSR for defendants charged with Class B misdemeanor or higher offenses.

For questions regarding the Public Safety Report System, please contact bail@txcourts.gov.

To address many of the questions received related to the PSRS, OCA will be hosting live Q&A. The dates below will be updated as more sessions are scheduled. You can download the power point presentation given at the sessions here.

Local Administrative User Registration Forms

Each location (court, agency, office) will need to identify a local administrative user (LAU) for the PSRS who will be assigned administrative rights to add/remove other local users of the system. The LAU will need to complete an electronic PSRS User Registration Form so they can be set up in the system. Once the LAU's account is set up in the system, OCA will send a notification with guidance on how to enter other end-users to their location in the system. 

Only one electronic PSRS User Registration Form needs to be submitted per location/ORI number. OCA recommends that the Local Administrative User (LAU) selected by each location/ORI be the one to complete the form.

In addition, OCA also recommends that the LAU be the same representative who is the Department of Public Safety’s (DPS) Terminal Agency Coordinator (TAC).
