| | | | ten year old ticket
I live in Houston, TX
Ten years ago I got a ticket in Sweetwater TX and never did pay it. A couple days ago I got a letter from a collection agent saying a warrant was issued for my arrest and to send $200. I guess my questions are:
Why did it take them so long to issue a warrant?
How do I check if there is actually a warant out?
What happens if I pay it and still get arrested? i.e.- I mailed the check but it hadn't been received yet.
thanks |

| | | The warrant goes on your record as forever until you pay. Of course, there is an arrest warrant if you dont pay. |

| | | | I don't know. It was so long ago. I was pretty broke back then, I guess.
UPDATE:
I was pulled over and given a speeding ticket on Thursday. The officer didn't mention anything about having a warrant. Boy was I scared. I was driving my company truck at the time. I'm thinking maybe the city of Sweetwater is just bluffing. |

| | | | No, Sweetwater isn't bluffing. Police officers don't always check for warrants/run someone's driver's license. Get it taken care of. |
