Yes, it should but mistakes happen. You should save your receipt for years. A lot of times, the data entry doesn't catch up with the paid fines.
If I were you, I'd call and make sure that you don't have a warrant. Call your local sheriff office just to make sure.
I'm serious about saving receipts. I used to work in a law office and I don't know how many people would come in asking for assistance with this manner. The ones who saved everything were easy to help, whereas the ones who couldn't prove they paid their fines were more difficult.
I've also had a few parking tickets from 6 years ago come up a few weeks ago. I am the type that saves everything and was able to prove the city made a mistake.

I think how it works, is that you go to the court house, tell them you have some unpaid traffic tickets, and that there may be a warrant out for you because of this. They take you in to see the judge, you tell the judge that you "finally" got the money to pay the fines and you would like to pay them off if you could. Usually they will let you pay the fine and all is clear. But, call the court house first, and ask what their procedures are. Some jurisdictions may differ than where I'm from.

No. you will have to also pay the fees and fines for the warrant as well. The only way around paying the warrant off is the area where you got the ticket has an "Amnesty Period". Around here, every once in a while, they will do this. But, if you don't do it during that time, you will pay the past fines plus the warrant.

Wow, people are so naive to the system sometimes. A warrant is issued, not for the original crime in this case, but for failure to pay or failure to show up on ur court dates. Either way, a warrant is a new charge and has to be dealt with in the court room. Even though you pay your tickets, you still face the charge "warrant" for failure to follow the courts orders and pay by a certain date.

it should, im not 100% sure tho! You might still have to appear in court or pay a fee for the warrant to be dropped. Call your local clerk of courts they can tell you what you need to know. And silly pay your tickets before it comes to this!

Yep, be sure and tell them to take the warrant off, they will, It can take up to 30days to show on law enforcement computers, so get a print out of paid tickets and action to lift warrants, carry in wallet in case you get stopped.

Why haven't you paid them before now? Warrants can only be recalled by a judge, who is going to ask you the same question I just did. Go pay your fines off and then turn yourself in, to the Sheriff.

You believed the cop who mentioned you would be able to desire to no longer make a fee plan? call the courtroom. you will probable finally end up having to place in writing them. tell them you at the instant are out of state. solid threat they are going to decide for a fee plan. They --would-- even permit you do community service in Oregon to pay off the effective. you would be able to desire to ask approximately site visitors college to maintain the factor off your checklist. little bit of a gamble with the fee plan. Worst they are able to assert isn't any. in case you do no longer something, the courtroom will subject a warrant which, between different issues, will develop the value. . .
