How to File a Complaint

If you wish to file a complaint against a constable, please go to our "Rules and Forms" section and use the "Complaint & Statement of Facts" form. You can mail, e-mail, or fax the form to the CESTB office, or you may fill out our Online Complaint Form.

If you have multiple complaints concerning one or more constables, please fill out a separate form for each complaint for each constable.

Once your complaint is received, it will be scheduled for initial screening at the next CESTB public board meeting. At that time the board may request a response from the constable, who will be allowed 40 days to respond. At any time the Board may request additional information from you, the constable, or another source. When the Board is satisfied all the necessary evidence has been compiled, they will determine if a hearing is required. You will receive a letter(s) notifying you of any scheduled hearings, decisions and actions taken.
