No, there is no statute of limitations on traffic warrants.  If you fail to appear in Texas on a traffic ticket, you are found guilty, and then on top of that, a criminal charge of Failure to Appear is entered.   That is what causes the warrant to be issued.\n\nOnce a warrant is issued, your driver's license is suspended and if you are stopped while driving, you will be charged with "Driving while license suspended" (or "DWS") and there will be additional fines and a trip to the local jail.\n\nYou have to contact the original court and pay all of the fines. They will give you a letter which you can then take to the DMV to have your license reinstated. Your license is not automatically reinstated when you pay the fines.

He may be able to try, but if he does you can challenge the ticket in court.  I can't see any possibility of that holding up in court with no proof other than an off duty deputies week old memory.  If you have any questions about how to challenge the ticket, you can normally talk with the police station that issued the ticket or your local courthouse.  You probably won't even need a lawyer from the sounds of this.

A warrant could be issued on you for failure to appear

If you are summoned to court (in Michigan as in all the states I lived in a traffic ticket is considered a summons), and if you fail to appear and a warrant is issued, the court levies  in addition to the fines, charages  a warrant fee.\n\nIn addition, in 2004, there was legislation that increase fees that, includes $10.00 for a  "Child Support Bench Warrant Enforcement Fund".\n\nFor example in Lansing, MI, it is $30.

as I said before-Warrants are not public information in AZ. There probably are not in your area. If the person is over 18-you have no right to the information concerning another person  anyway.

a law is a law -- doesnt matter how long you were on the street...plead guilty and pay the ticket...I assume that is why you are asking...

They can have you serve the time at any point if you've already been convicted/pled.  Statue of limitations only prevent a case from being tried, nothing else.  Since the trial already occured statue of limitations have no bearing on the situation.

The two posters are correct. In simple terms, a statute of limitations is a time limit for charges to be brought against you. When a warrant is filed, the DA has done just that, filed charges. Now the police can look for you for a long time. \n\nIn some rape and murder cases with no named suspects, the DA's have started filing warrants for the DNA profile of the suspect. Truely a great thing!\n\nLike the poster above me said, turn yourself in. Depending on what the charge is, it is possible to get cited (a ticket) and get assigned a court date.

You won't receive a warrant, I'm sure one has been issued, but they are not required to notify you that a warrant has been issued. Call the court and make payment arrangements. You'll have to pay the original fine, plus warrant fees, possibly interest and whatever else the local laws allow them to tack on. Or you can just ignore it and the next time you get stopped for a simple traffic violation you can get arrested for an outstanding warrant.

yes it is under Article 43 of the UCMJ (uniform code of military justice) unless it is desertion during war time then there is no statue of limitation. You cannot be punished with an Article 15 more than 2 yrs post the event and you cannot be Court-Martialed more than 5 yrs unless you are charged with death.

Warrants don't ever expire.

A bench warrant is the same as an FTA (Failure to Appear) and it is good in all states. If you get pulled over and they run you it will show up and chances are you will be arrested on it. The place where the warrant was issued then has the option of whether or not to extridite.... depending on what the original charge was, this is typically unlikely, unless the original charge was something rough. You will need to turn yourself in somewhere to get the process started to handle it... in most cases the municipality or county justs wants the money that is owed.

you have to look at the limitations of actions act. Usually, you have around 6 years - but this varies from state to state.\n\nAlso, the longer you take, the less reliable people's memories are and the harder it is to track them down. So even though you may be within the time limits, you may have evidentiary problems if you wait SIX years.\n\nFinally, you have a case regardless of whether the cop wrote/didn't write a ticket.\n\nAlso are you prepared to go through the pain of going through court? it might cost a lot more money than the damage toyour car. Hope this helps.

all warrants have extradition limits. warrants can be issued for anything. you need to research the topic. i am not going to broaden your question with a decent answer.

You have asked several questions into one. First of all, if your talking a texas only drivers license, then what the cities and counties do is attach any traffic violations to your license. So when the Law Enforcement officer runs your license any texas issued traffic citation will come up, regardless of texas jurisdiction. As for out of state traffic tickets, some states may do the same and attach a violation to the license. Most states belong to the Recipication Agreement, meaning that if your license is susspended in your home state or any other state that you had a license, then your license that you hold now is null and void. As for deferred adjudication, it wouldn't be reported until after you have completed the agreement of the court. Then it probably wouldn't be reported at all, since you complied with the courts requirement.

Statutes of limitations don't apply to traffic citations. The statute of limitation says that prosecution must begin within a certain period of time since the date of the crime, but being issued a citation IS the initiation of prosecution. Also, though you do not believe you have been convicted, you probably have been in absentia, which is what they do for people who don't show up to their court date.
