THE RESERVE UNIT
The Bexar County Constable's Office Precinct One has a highly regarded unit of approximately 20 volunteer

not completed until the interview. Those individuals meeting our requirements are then required to pass
a background check, physical test, and a psychological test at the applicant's expense.
Reserve deputies are required to provide a minimum of 20 hours per month to remain active in the unit.
In addition to this, they are also required to attend a meeting on every first Thursday of every month
to keep updated on vital information.
