Arrest Warrants
These are warrants for Class C Misdemeanor offenses, which range from violations of the traffic code, penal code, and City ordinances. A Municipal Court Judge issues a warrant for defendants who:
- Do not comply with making an initial appearance to answer the charge filed against them,
- do not appear for an assigned court date, or
- Are not in compliance with a court order.
A $50.00 warrant fee is added to the balance on each case every time a warrant is issued, and cases are reported to OminBase which adds an additional $10.00. Cases with warrants are also referred to a collection agency and adds a 30% of the balance due on every case.
