It's been over 11 years. I'm wondering if a SOL applies to this. Also, is there such things as amnesty in the courts for this sort of thing? BTW.. This is for California.

not really. because you chose to ignore the warrant, the SOL is stayed. however if you never go back to california it will never be a problem. i think Cal. is not a member of the Uniform traffic system which reports one state's violations to your home state. otherwise call up the court and see

Call the Court in the county in which you were ordered to appear. There is just no such thing as a statute of limitations on a warrant. It will remain on your record until you contact the courts and take care of it. Call them. Either pay the fine or appear and pay the fine. The warrant will stand until you do. And... not appearing on a traffic ticket is a lousy reason to spend time in jail... so take care of it before you get arrested on that warrant!!

All 3 above me are surprising, yet have not truly given you a proof. The statutes of obstacles could desire to do with the time the government has to start prosecution. in case you have a warrant for failure to look, the government has already all started prosecution. as quickly because it is all started, the statute of obstacles no longer applies. That warrant will exist until you get it cleared up.

YOu can pay the fines which will be highter because of the warrant. Just call the court and ask how much you owe, and send them the money, certified, and it should be dropped, but it will remain on your record. YOu can't avoid things by running away it wil be there until you take care of it.

people keep asking this same question over and over....once you are charged and convicted of crime there is no statute of limitations. It'll always follow you anywhere. Statute of limitations applies to crimes you committed but not yet arrested for

I think you will deservedly be looking over your shoulder for the rest of your life, unless of course...
You are arrested one day when you are out for a Sunday drive with your children grandchildren.
The Man will hunt you forever!
