If your roomie had a restraining order against her boyfriend, why did she not report the violation to the court ? Most restraining orders say no contact. Why don't you just ask your room mate what happen ? This hole story sounds suspicious.

All you would have to do is call the court where the case that you are concerned that you might have a warrant is in. A simple look in the phone book or online search will get you the phone number. Then all you have to do is speak to the clerk and give her the case number and ask if the defendant has a warrant against them. They will gladly give you that information as well as the disposition of the case. \n\nGood luck to you.

Do you know which county the suit was filed in?  How long ago was it?\n\nMost counties in California have their lawsuit information on line.  Some of the smaller counties are still catching up.  Go to your county court website and see if they post civil case information online.  Also, if the case was filed more than 7 or so years ago, you may have a hard time finding it, depending on the county.

The easiest and probably safest way would be to contact an attorney and have them find out for you.  Calling the police won't help as that info will not be given over the phone.  If you go in and there are charges, you will be arrested on the spot.  So, I suggest you contact an attorney.

If, as you say, you were served "papers" you had that information. Why did you go to court records to learn about a judgment if you claim to have no knowledge of the case. The court hearings are a matter of public records so start there.\nA lot of time and effort had to be spent long before they could have gotten a judgment in the first place so I don't buy your story of not getting any notice. If, it is a wrong or false claim and you didn't get any notices over time then contact your local legal aid group and get help there.

20 years ago in CA, the procedure was to issue a bench-warrant for your arrest, with a mailed notice.  This could be cleared up with a check-in-the-mail.  No court appearance was ever necessary.\n\nUnderstand that if the cops have you in custody and a warrant check comes up positive, you'll probably be answering some additional questions in a more comfortable location.\n\nGet in touch with the court clerk in the county where you failed to appear, and ask what the procedure is.  Don't be afraid - they'll be very nice to you.

if he sues you in court show up, let a judge decided if the landlord's lease is legal,\n\nbut remember if he files against you and you do not show up he wins no questions asks

Did he actually lie in a way that you can PROVE, or do you just disagree with what he says?\n\nIf he says you don't feed the kid vegetables, and you do, that's going to be a tough one to prove.  \n \nIf he says you spank the kid too many times, and you think you spank the kid just the right number of times, that's going to be a tough one to prove.\n\nIf he says you didn't show up for vistation on three different dates, and you have real proof that you did, then that's a little easier to prove.\n\nSo the thing is, you have to be able to prove that he's lying...not just that you two disagree over something or interpret something differently.  \n\nThen you have to be able to demonstrate that he actually committed the crime of perjury.  Start by reading 118 of the California Penal Code, here:\n\nhttp://www.leginfo.ca.gov/cgi-bin/waisgate?WAISdocID=9122559612+0+0+0&WAISaction=retrieve\n\nPay special attention to paragraph (b).\n\nIf you still think he's perjured himself, you need to bring it to the attention of the court where you are handling the visitation matter.  If the judge is interested, he will deal with it.\n\nConsulting with an attorney is not a bad idea, either.

Court?  City?  State?

You should contact your state or local landlord-tenant affairs office or state attorney general for information on your state's laws.  If you were served with a court document, which it sounds like you were, it will probably have a court date on it; and if you don't go to court on that day to oppose the case, the judge will automatically grant judgment to the landlord.  (On the other hand you may have been served with a 30 day warning notice, but if you got a summons, that means "be in court".)  In most states, as long as you bring the rent up to date, with late fees, as of the day of the court hearing, you can stay.  Be sure you get a receipt if you pay.  If you pay, you should call a day or two before trial to find out if the landlord has dismissed his case.  If he hasn't, you should seriously consider either going to court.

Yes, warrant will show up in all states if you are stopped. If you were not jailed, you are lucky. Better get it cleared up as soon as possible. Good luck

Even though a great deal of time has transpired since the original charge, there is a great probability that a warrant has been issued for failing to appear on the original charge. A person charged with a crime has an obligation to appear before a judge to have the matter resolved. A warrant can be issued at any tiume during that process if a person does not show up to court, even if they have shown up already. I would suggest that you contact the court of origin for your friend and see if there is a warrant. If there isn't one, then he/she is home free.

yea... your best bet is to contact the court.  And it depends on the state whether or not its manditatory to show up or not.  Chances are if you don't show up the judge will issue a bench warrant for you in that state.  So... it's in your best interest to show up for court.  Especially since you were FLYING!

If they have been tried and sentenced, that will not help much.  If not, then talk to the District Attorney's office about whether they would continue the case if you did not press charges.  They may or may not want to pursue it without your testimony, but you can ask.

Why not contact and attorney and have him/her find out for you?  You might have to pay a fee but at least you would know.  I do not think the police would give you that info over the phone and short of going there and asking, an attorney might be the best option.
