If you would like to use a photograph taken by the police to support your case, contact the police station directly to request use of the picture. For example, you may want to request a mug shot taken during your arrest to support your argument that you suffered injuries at the time of arrest. Depending on the nature of the photograph and whether the use of the photograph violates any privacy concerns, the police station may grant your request. In your county, there may be additional steps that you need to take to request the use of a photograph in court. Therefore, you should discuss your desire to use a police station photograph in your case with a Texas attorney.
