New Jersey Bench Warrant

A bench warrant is issued when a person fails to complete a legal obligation. When a bench is issued, police are required to arrest the individual named in the warrant and bring them before the court to answer for what they've failed to do. The following is a list of reasons why a bench warrant may be issued:

  • You failed to make a scheduled appearance in court i.e. sentencing.
  • You failed to pay a fine i.e. custody or support payments.
  • You violated a court order i.e. failing to perform community service when required.

If you have a bench warrant issued on your behalf, I can seek a voluntary arrangement which will allow you to appear in court and resolve the situation without being arrested. It is important to note that if you do have a bench warrant out on your behalf and you appear in court, speak to the police, or consult authorities without consulting an attorney of your own, you can easily be arrested.
