What is the name of your state? Florida

I just found out that I have a Felony warrant for my arrest in Florida from almost 8 years ago when I was with my ex husband living with the Military. A neighbor of mine lent me her AT &T Phone card which ended up racking up an enormous bill. I moved from Florida before she recieved the bill but when she called and told me about it I said I would pay it but I couldn't all at once. Anyway she had to press charges against me inorder for At&T to Drop the bill against her. Because it was over a thousand dollars I now have a felony warrant but I do not live in FL! I have no money and no way of getting to FL what to I do. Is there a statute of limitations on warrants?

thank you for your help

Contact the DA and work to find a resolution with him/her.

That's your problem.

The CARD didn't rack up the bill, YOU did.

Is there a statute of limitations on warrants?
Of course there is. One second after you die.

My response:

Ah, there's no quiet, subtle, understatement in that phrase.
Short, succinct, and to the point. The phrasing is sheer poetry, like a finely tuned violin!

Compliments!

Warrants are good forever. The only way to take care of this is to get a lawyer and either stand trial or negotiate a plea bargain. It most likely will involve having to go back to FL at some point. If you are indigent, you might get a public defender. Calling the DA without a lawyer is a very bad idea.

If I were a bounty hunter, then it would do me no good to admit it now would it. LOL

However, IF I were a bounty hunter, these forums would be a gold mine. All you have to do is read the post, ask some leading questions, and POW, easy money. HA!

No, I had enough adrenaline excitement in the military. I make much better money doing what I do now and it is much less likely to get me killed. LOL.

statue of limitations. on most charges they have to be filed before the 7 yr limitaion but only murder is a life time warrant.. if charges arent filed for 7 yrs then dont worry but if its murder you are in deep crap

And what the HELL does any of this have to do with the Original post.

There is a warrant issued. HELLO? A warrant NEVER expires.

Next time learn to read and keep incorrect information off the forum.

next you read what is said.. i never said a warrant expires.. what i said was or (pardon me) accuasations must be filed on before the 7 yr linitation. unless its a murder . then accusations and warrants last a life time. but yes you are right warrants do last a life time.

And AGAIN, that has absolutely NOTHING to do with this poster's question, which is about a warrant.
