Pasadena Bench Warrant Attorneys
Bench warrants are court-ordered documents that give law enforcement officials the right to arrest and detain people who fail to appear in court. As soon as the court approves a bench warrant, it becomes effective immediately, giving law enforcement the green light to detain the individual whose name appears on the warrant. When a person is arrested on a bench warrant, he/she will remain in county jail until bail is posted.
The purpose of a bench warrant is to bring people into court to take care of their pending legal actions. Bench warrants are issued for a multiple reasons, such as:
- Failure to appear in court on a schedule date
- Failure to appear in court after being released from custody
- Failure to pay a fine
- Failure to comply with a court order (i.e. child support, community service, treatment programs, etc.)
