My boyfriend just got arrested on bench warrant, what's going to happen?
|
(Before I start, this is in the bay area of California)
Today my boyfriend got arrested because him and his friend got caught smoking marijuana (it was a very little amount) and the cop was originally just going to give them both a citation but let his friend go, and because my boyfriend has a bench warrant (he got a DUI last year and he did his community service, but he has not paid all of his dues. He was for a while but these past few months he hasn't although we were planning on going to Marin County to pay it off) so now, he is currently in a holding cell and he might be transferred to Marin County since that is where he got his DUI. My question is, what is going to happen? He does not have a criminal record he only has a DUI (that he just needs to pay off now) and a jay walking ticket. Is he going to be there for the night? When will he probably come home? and will he go to jail? Thanks. Additional Details Will he be on probation? If so what will happen if he is, and so forth.

A bench warrant requires a court appearance. He will remain in jail until the judge can schedule the hearing. The judge will then decide if he will be released. |

He will wait in jail until he gets transported to Marin County, unless Marin County decides they really don't want him. But if they do, he will stay in jail there until his case comes up for a hearing. Then he can explain to the judge why he didn't pay his dues.
You better bring the money with you when you go to court to visit him.Judges are somewhat nicer if you are cooperative. |

Hon, he has a criminal record, he got a DUI that went to warrant.
Well, I'm not in Marin, but I imagine he'll do a couple weeks in jail. Failure to appears, especially for drunk drivers, is NOT appreciated by the courts.
The last guy I had with the got $600 fine, 18 month suspended license, and two weeks in jail.
The fact he got caught with another controlled substance doesn't bode well for him.
Courts are pretty accommodating with people who try. If your bf had gone to the court and explained he didn't have the funds, they would have helped him set up a payment plan. So, the court won't be very forgiving. |
