Bench Warrant

Have a fun time dude.. you obviously need the time to work your shit out.. assuming you can.. it just seems like your mental capacity only goes so far..

Say Hi to Bubba for me..

haha will do :thumbsup:


Ive had my date continued before with no problem because my car wouldnt start about an hour before i was supposed to appear. ALSO my attorney said that most likely he wouldnt issue a warrant for something like having the flu, but it really depended on what mood the judge was in. So i dont know where you get this your supposed to be in court unless your dead deal, it ALWAYS depends on the judge....

Good shit, that's the exact mentality that'll land you back in jail.

Me though? I hope to never do time.. because i'm just not that kind of person.. if i drink.. i don't drive... i'm not gonna kill someone, or rape anyone.. i keep to myself and understand the rules of soceity.. i don't always follow them.. and flat out break them sometimes.. but at least i'm prepared to deal with the concequences. you? i don't know what your story is.. but it's a pretty sad one.. you've done time before.. for who knows what.. you obviously didn't take it serious.. or even thought it was a joke because it was the "system" or "the man" that put you there.. not your own actions...

So yea.. keep blaming the system.. and the system will keep fucking you in the ass... but only because you let it.

We will see what happens, ill post back when i find out

i dont blame it on the system, but once your in the system it snowballs very easily. So you agree how the system works?? The more money you have the better chance you have of getting your case dropped? Thats bullshit if ive ever seen it but its reality...

Gotta go with the flow in these situations.

Yeah, but he's been in trouble with this before and the Judge ordered rehab of some kind and he hasn't complied with that order. Judges don't like that and I'm betting that the same Judge issued this Bench Warrent. Now he has all kinds of problems and headaches to deal with. Plus, he could be sitting up in his room an hour from now and they could come knocking. Or tomorrow while he's at work. I'd hate to have that shit hanging over my head.

If it were me, I'd walk my rear into that Judges courtroom and at the end of call when he asks if hes missed anything, I'd stand up and beg for mercy.

I've been in a similar situation. I had a court date that two days before my car stopped working. I called every possible person I could to change the court date. I left multiple voicemails for my probabation officer even the public defender I got assigned. No return calls were ever made. Needless to say, they issued a bench warrant without even contacting me in any way (so I never knew I had a warrant for my arrest). One morning I was awakened by a knock on the door. Two uniformed police officers told me some story about damage being done to my car and that I needed to come have a look. Being half alseep and ignorant of the bench warrant, I saw no reason to take a look. I was about halfway to my car when they grabbed my arms and handcuffed me. Luckily it happened well before the court opened in the morning so I was processed and sent to court within a few hours. I explained the story to the judge and requested a new attorney. Maybe I just got a sympathetic judge, but he understood and let me off without any other trouble than paying the bench warrant fee. The best way to avoid any jail time is to talk to your lawyer. You will have to show up in court at some point (that's the whole point of being issued a bench warrant) so the best bet is to have your lawyer talk to the court and arrange a day for you to appear, then notify the local police of your situation and that he will be guruanteeing your appearance in court. DON'T JUST IGNORE IT!!!

hmmm, absent for nearly 10 hours now...

............in hiding? orrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[BobBong]

So what's the story morning glory?
I see you on other threads.. so does that mean you're STILL just ignoring this issue?

[C4nn4Bliss]

nah i thought this thread should die

Turns out all the judge wanted was for me to show up in court for missing the previous date, thought that this thread was silly after that and it should die. Although i do find it funny that bob was so certain he knew our court system.... but then i re-read all this and realized that he was just busting my balls, fuckin canadian! I gotta go back in a month to take care of my new charges.

thanks for those who tried to help me out, rest go fuck yourself

oh yeah i didnt have to post bail after all, called in and set up an apperance, the bail was just so i knew how much i needed if i got arrested before i saw the judge
