undefinedWhat is the name of your state?CA
My husband and I were on vacation for a few days in AZ and decided to pull off the road and hike around. There was a nice creek so we grabbed a fishing pole w/hook & lure and just casted for a few minutes. No tackle box or anything else with us, just a pole. Well, fish and game showed up and gave us a ticket for fishing with out a license. We left AZ, back to CA and were waiting to recieve our ticket in the mail. Turns out, we were supposed to appear in court, which we told the officer at the time he ticketed us we couldn't do because we live in CA. We said we would just pay the ticket. Never received anything in the mail, looked on the courts website and saw there is a case pending against us.
Does this mean there will be a warrant out for my husbands arrest and will is show up here in CA or only if we go back to AZ?
On the court website it says our CRIMINAL charge is for taking wildlife without valid license. First of all, we didn't TAKE anything. We casted a few times and that was it!
Do I wait and see if a warrant is issued or send a letter explaining we were expecting a ticket and never got one, or...... Never go back to AZ??
Thanks for any info...
