What is the name of your state? AR
I currently reside in Nevada, but in the year 2000 I lived in AR and in the course of that year was cited forminor traffic violations. I was making payments on those tickets but got laid off from work and had to move back to NV. A few months after settling in back in NV I called the courthouse to get information on the balance of my fines so that I could begin making payments again. (AR had also suspended my driving privilege by that time). I was told that I had to appear before the judge and the woman on the phone would not give me any other information regarding my balance except that there was a bench warrant out for my arrest. My question is, "Is there a statute of limitation for the bench warrant?" I cannot get back to AR to appear before the judge due to financial and transportation issues. It has been six years and I still can't get a DL in Nevada. I want to pay these fines and get my driving privilege back. What can I do?
