My 62 year old aunt was recently pulled over for a minor traffic violation, and when her license was run through the system they found a 27 year old warrant for child welfare fraud when she was married to her first husband. She says that she had taken care of it back then, but nevertheless she was hauled off to jail. She was put in a Santa Clara County Jail on a Wednesday (10 days ago), was brought to court that following Friday where she was told that no bail would be posted, and that the case was going to be referred to a higher court, as the judge had no jurisdiction over a case that old. She still has not been given another court date. How long can they hold her and how can we obtain more information? She is still not scheduled under the county court clerk's docket.
What's also puzzling to us is the fact that she has had several background checks run on her, in the past 4 years. Twice I ran them through a professional backgrounder, for employment purposes, and more recently for an adoption case. Each time they came back clear, so why now is this showing up and a warrant being issued?
