Participants will meet virtually with a judge at the event – and while the county said it is not an amnesty program – it does offer favorable considerations from the court, often in reduced fines, probation requirements or a new court date as an alternative to jail time.

  • As long as the warrant was issued in Osceola County, individuals do not need to be residents of Osceola County to attend
  • Participants must be an American citizen or legal resident to attend
  • Participants must bring photo identification

For more information on the event, contact the Osceola Clerk of Circuit Court and County Comptroller Criminal Division, 407-742-3566.
