Dangerous myths about ticket warrants that could land you in jail

After you receive a traffic ticket, you only a few days to either pay the ticket or set it for a court hearing. If you fail to do either, a Dallas traffic warrant for your arrest will be issued. Once the Dallas traffic warrant is issued, you can't resolve it with the court unless and until you do one of the following three things: 1) pay the maximum fine amount for the ticket; 2) post a cash bond in an amount equal to the maximum fine amount plus court costs; or 3) hire Todd E. Tkach to post an attorney bond. Choosing option #1 (paying the ticket) means that you pay a high fine amount and are convicted of the charge, which means it goes on your driving record. Option #2 (posting a cash bond ) is also problematic. The amount of the cash bond will be equal to the maximum possible fine for that ticket, plus an additional amount for court costs. The cash necessary for that bond will be several hundred dollars. Additionally, the Court holds your cash until you resolve your traffic ticket, which could take several months.

Generally, there are two types of Dallas traffic warrants for municipal citations; Alias warrants and Capias warrants:

Alias Warrants

Alias warrants go into effect after you receive a traffic citation if before your appearance date, you fail to either: 1) pay your traffic citation; or 2) request a court hearing.

Tkach now! We can post an attorney bond to lift the Dallas traffic warrant for your arrest and set your case for hearing. At the hearing, we strive for a dismissal of the charge(s) against you. If a dismissal can’t be obtained, we’ll aggressively negotiate to obtain the best possible result for you.

Capias Warrants

Capias warrants are issued when you fail to comply with a plea agreement that you entered into regarding a previous citation. It may be that you agreed to pay a certain fine within a certain time and to not get any other traffic citations within a certain time period. Failure to comply with any part of that agreement will result in a Capias warrant being issued for your arrest. In this situation, it’s probably too late for us to be able to help. You must either pay the fine or remain subject to arrest at any time.
