The Court has been advised that court customers are receiving calls from someone claiming to be a deputy stating to the customer that they had missed a court date and had a pending warrant. The caller is using the real names of Judges and has somehow acquired the addresses of the court customers. The caller is telling the court customers that they can stop the warrant if the customer pays money to the caller. Please be advised that the Yakima County District Court or any of the courts managed by Yakima County District Court (Union Gap, Mabton, Moxee, Tieton, Grandview), would never call a court customer and ask for money to stop a warrant from issuing. If you receive a call like this, disconnect the call immediately. If you want to followup on the call please call the court at 509-574-1804, or you can also chat with us online by logging onto our website at https://www.yakimacounty.us/412/District-Court. Thank you, Therese Murphy, District Court Administrator
