If I want to sit out my warrent, how can I find out if i can

Answered by attorney Kenneth G. Wincorn
Criminal Law lawyer at Law Offices of Kenneth G. Wincorn & Associates, P.C.
A warrant stays out until the arrest or the accused turns himself in. You can do jail time instead of probation if you wish but a permanent conviction record will be created

Is a conviction of truancy I received as a minor cleared when I turn eighteen?

Cynthia Russell Henley
Answered by attorney Cynthia Russell Henley (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Cynthia Henley
You probably were not convicted of truancy but instead given deferred disposition which is like probation but at the end of the probationary period after you have completed all the requirements, including community service and payment of fines and fees, the case is dismissed. You will need to check with the court in which the case was prosecuted to be certain of the actual final disposition. If instead you were actually convicted of the offense (which I highly doubt), then the conviction remains on your record. However, it is a class C misdemeanor which is equivalent to a traffic citation. Be certain that the question you are answering does not limit the offenses you must report to those which could result in jail time or are a Class B or higher offense.

Bond is 2,500 how much time without paying bond?

Answered by attorney Tristan Nicolas Legrande
Criminal Law lawyer at LeGrande Law
Assault family violence is a class A misdemeanor. It is punishable by up to 1 yr in county jail, and a fine not to exceed $4,000.  Getting convicted of a family violence offense will have lifelong consequences. A conviction (or even guilty plea and deferred adjudication probation with no conviction) means you lose the right to purchase a firearm with a federal background check, and it is illegal for you to possess a firearm anywhere for 5 yrs following release from jail, pr probation. People that claim they have been assaulted do not "press charges." Thats what the district attorney does. The DA will have the final say on if the state presses charges or dismisses them - wheb someone says "they didn't press charges," it confuses how the system work. If they think they can prove the case, it does not matter if the victim wants them to, they can proceed. The range of punishment is the same, whether he pays the bond or not.  The only difference is waiting in jail until a trial or plea.
