Concord Bench Warrants Lawyer
What are Bench Warrants in North Carolina?
A bench warrant is issued by a judge if you fail to comply with the rules of the court. If you disregard anything the court requires you to do, there is a good chance you'll have a bench warrant issued against you. Penalties may include enhanced fines, imprisonment, driver's license suspension, and even enhanced probation.
There are several common reasons a bench warrant may be issued:
- Failing to pay a fine
- Failing to do community service
- Failing to appear in court
- Failing to sign up for court-mandated classes
- Failing to obey any court order
While the firm understands that you may have had a legitimate reason for failing to comply with your court order, most judges are unlikely to listen to excuses and will penalize you unless presented with a strong defense.
What Is the Difference Between a Warrant and a Bench Warrant?
Whereas arrest warrants are issued when criminal activity is suspected, bench warrants are issued when a specific type of criminal activity has already occurred. A bench warrant gives law enforcement the right to arrest you on the spot and bring you into court.
