I had a call the other day, the woman called in because her son was giving her a hard time at home. I ran all parties before arriving, she had a ten year old warrant for shoplifting (fail to appear court). She assumed that if time went by, she would be okay. She spent the night in jail.
Some people think that if they pretend it didn't happen that it will go away, not with warrants.

I get a copy of warrants for the county I live in and there is two on the list that have been dead for years. but every year the DA will go through the warrants and may recall the warrant but not likely. turn yourself in before you get stopped while you are driving and get your car towed and impounded and creates more of an expense

The textbook answer is no, as stated by another person answering, the statute of limitations ends when the warrant is issued. In the real world, things are different in every different jurisdiction. In my area, it is not uncommon for many misdemeanor warrants to be recalled after a few years if they are not served.

Are you serious.. Absolutely not.
Remember the statue of limitations? That stops the second the DA gets the warrant for your arrest.
Last year I saw that my friend from high school still had a warrant 10 years later for minor possession... think about a major crime

A warrant has no expiration or statute of limitations. It only expires when you are 1) arrested or turn yourself in or 2) a judge vacates the warrant.

Nope. Just go to the place your wanted out of and pay the bond. It's not a big deal.

No, they stay active, unless withdrawn by the issuing authority.
