Complaints

The Fort Bend County Precinct 1 Constable’s Office recognizes that law enforcement’s image and reputation depend on the personal integrity and discipline of all agency employees.  The Precinct 1 Constable’s Office pledges to competently and impartially investigate all allegations of misconduct by employees and complaints bearing on the department's response to community needs. 

Members of the public who are dissatisfied with how law enforcement service was provided, a failure to provide service, improper attitudes or behavior are encouraged to bring this to the attention of our office. Service-related complaints will be investigated, and proper corrective action will be taken as necessary.

Members of the public who have been victim of deputy misconduct or who have witnessed deputy misconduct are encouraged to report the misconduct to the Precinct 1 Constable’s Office.  Allegations of misconduct will be thoroughly investigated, and sustained allegations could result in additional training, counseling, reprimand, suspension, termination or, in the case of criminal allegations, referred to the criminal justice system.

A disagreement over the validity of a traffic citation is not a matter of misconduct. Such disagreements should be directed to the court that has jurisdiction in the matter.
