Houston Bench Warrants

Has a Bench Warrant Been Issued for You in the Houston Area?

If a judge has issued a bench warrant for you or a loved one in the Houston area then it is imperative you take immediate action and contact a Houston criminal defense attorney for help. A bench warrant is different from an arrest warrant and the distinction is important in determining your legal course. A bench warrant is issued by a judge who has determined to bring you before her court for a specific reason, not necessarily related to an offense. A bench warrant can be issued by a judge for many reasons, including but not limited to:

• Failure to show up for a court appearance
• Lapses of payment for child support or alimony
• Unpaid fines
• Unpaid parking or traffic tickets
• Need for testimony in a hearing or trial

A bench warrant is a warrant for your arrest so it is essential that you contact a Houston criminal defense attorney specializing in bench warrants as soon as you are made aware a bench warrant has been issued in your name.
