I was really dumb for the last 3 years and I did not pay off my tickets. This hurts when you are trying to get a job. I have traffic warrants in Houston and Dallas, and a run in with a state trooper somewhere in Prairie View. I really don't have the ticket information from any of the warrants, and I lost my license about a month ago. How can I find out what I owe, without being arrested?

Just go to the courthouse in the town which you believe you have warrants. Bring ID and lots of money. Some place may have you taken into custody but if they're all traffic matters you should be able to bail yourself out after they're done with the paperwork and before being put into an actual cell (other than the standard holding cell.) Don't forget the ID though, you'll need that or most places can keep you. Be prepared to pay heft fines though, don't forget your money. Don't show up with just a checkbook either since not everyone accepts checks. Same goes for credit cards. You may be able to call and provide your drivers license number so they can look it up, but they may not tell you without seeing you and ID in person.

You need to call Harris County Justice of the Peace, Dallas County Justice of the Peace and whatever county Prairieview is in and find out how much you owe.

Some counties will let you pay off traffic tickets, do community service, or go to jail (at a rate of $50 a day in some Texas counties)

Hate to say it, but you're in a tight spot... If you contact one station or turn yourself in, they'll most likely check out your background through LEADS and it'll show you have warrants in other towns. This means they'll probably just take you directly to the other station as soon as you're done with the first one.

The best thing to do is turn yourself in, as judges tend to look more favorably upon people who do so and make sure you have a large amount of money because you're going to need it.

Either way, once the messiness is over, it shouldn't be too difficult to get these offenses expunged from your record. That is, as long as they are just moving violations and such and not something like vehicular manslaughter. Contact a lawyer for help with that.

A Biology professor is discussing the severe glucose contents present day in semen. A blonde woman stands up and says professor glucose is sugar remarkable? So how come semen would not style candy? the entire class busts out guffawing and the girl's face turns actual crimson as she merely found out what she asked. She grabs all her books and as she is headed out the door the professor says its because of the fact the style buds for sugar are on the top of your tongue no longer the returned of your throat.

Just go to the court house there and they will be happy to help you out of your money. You may want to take the deed to your house, it might make a good down payment. Just be ready to spend a lot of money.

I'd say man-up and walk into the police station and ask them. You did the crime, now face the consequences.
