I live in Georgia and have a warrant issued for my arrest that will be released to the Sheriff's office if my bad check is not paid by tomorrow. My question is will an officer come to my house and look for me and have me arrested or will I be arrested if I get stopped for a traffic violation or something?

My response:

You will only be arrested if they catch you doing "something."

they will most likely come to your house, and arrest you.

if they have it on file where you live, they will come and arrest you. your only hope is if they don't have your current address easily accessible.

it may depend on how close you are to the arresting jurisdiction.

if you live in the city where you are supposed to face the charges, i would say, there is very little chance, they won't show up.

I have a radical idea. Why don't you just pay the check? I know. It sounds crazy, but it just might work.
