Resolving Outstanding Bench Warrants
In order to make a legal arrest, an officer must either have grounds to make an arrest-such as driving under the influence of alcohol-or they must have a warrant for the individual’s arrest. An arrest warrant of any kind must be issued by the court or a judge. There are two types of arrest warrants: a regular arrest warrant and a bench warrant. Bench warrants are specifically issued by the court or judge when a person is in contempt of court, or when they have “skipped bail” and failed to appear at their court hearing. If you have an outstanding bench warrant out for your arrest in Clark County, Nevada you need the help of our Las Vegas bench warrant lawyers.
Many times, those who fail to come to court do not even realize that they had a court date. The warrant may have been sent to an old address or gotten lost in the mail, so the suspect never saw the document. Once the person gets pulled over for a minor infraction, the police will immediately arrest that individual. The suspect might have to stay in jail or pay thousands of dollars in bail to be freed from police custody.
