Is there a way you can find out if someone has a warrant online for free?

Question

My husband was in an accident and payed the ticket but he is still worried that maybe there is a warrant. We moved out of the country after we paid so he is worried that maybe it didn't get there. We will be traveling back to the US and he wants to make sure they got the payment. We will be calling if there is no way to check online. We just thought it would be easier to check online.

Answer 1

Probably the best way to check is to call the Police Agency or the County courthouse where the ticket was issued.
If he paid the ticket, (Hopefully by check) you also should be able to check with the bank to see if the check cleared if so then it was paid.

IMHO You really have very little to worry about if it was traffic related. Good luck!

Answer 2

Your BEST option is to see if COMPLETE payment of the fine was received! To do that, contact the County Court Clerks office in the jurisdiction of which the ticket was issued.

If a complete payment wasn't received, the state will initially suspend and/or then revoke the license. The part where it becomes difficult is that MOST states have a "reciprocity" where if circumstances are such that a fine is not payed in the state where the ticket was issued, those states with "reciprocity" will also refuse to issue a new or renewal license.

Hope this helps!

Best wishes!

Answer 3

Yes...your city/state should have a website where you can find out that information. Look for a governmental site for the city/state in which your husband received the ticket, have your ticket number and any other important information handy, and you should be able to find out if a warrant has been issued due to nonpayment or if the payment has been received.
