What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? los angeles county California
This woman I work with got a call from a collections agency because she never paid a ticket for driving with expired tags. the ticket she got was from 12-24-11. She claims she went to court to fight the ticket but she lost and couldn't pay the fine. Now a collection agency is threatening her if she doesn't pay, that the dmv will suspend her liscense and a warrent will be put out for her arrest. I told her not to pay because the collection agency can't do those things. But i am wondering could there be a bench warrent out for her arrest right now? And could the dmv already have suspended her liscense? And if either of those actions did happen paying the ticket to the collection agency won't make it go away right?
