Legal Question in Criminal Law in Texas

I was taken to jail last Thursday for a PI charge. I was also issued a citation for running a red light on a bicycle. I was issued an actual citation for the red light incident but upon my release of jail all I was given was a "release to appear" form and no citation. Also, there is a line for the citation number or offense number and neither are filled out. I was not bailed out and I did not see a judge. Am I still responsible for the PI charge?

Contact the court to see what was actually filed against you.

Assuming you were charged with an offense, you are still responsible for showing up in court.
