- What is a warrant?
When a defendant fails to appear on or before their scheduled court date, fails to pay a fine, and/or fails to comply with the judge’s orders, the City Court Judge will issue a warrant ordering the defendant's arrest. A failure to appear/violate promise to appear complaint may also be issued. Once a warrant has been issued, it may be disposed by posting a bond or paying for the citation(s). You must appear in person in the Marshal’s office to take care of the warrant.
