Yes. This happens in most cases.
A bench warrant is issued because of the non-appearance of the defendant then - obviously, without a defendant, the hearing/trial date is "vacated" (cancelled).
Almost impossible to answer without knowing much more detail.
Without knowing the charge contained in the warrant it is impossible to answer this question.
yes.Added: Unless you are present at the bond hearing and voluntarily surrender yourself. . . . although it doesn't sound as if you were. Thus, the warrant was issued.
No. If you have been identified by name as the perpetrator/defendant and a warrant issued for you, the warrant (especially for a felony) will not expire unless withdrawn by the judge.
It means the defendant has failed to appear, is missing or escaped. An arrest warrant will be issued for the person.
Yes. Bench warrants are normally issued when the defendant does not appear for a court date, be it arraignment, trial, motions hearings, etc.
A Governors warrant is a special type of warrant and in most States there would be no "expiration". Most warrants per se have no expiration date. Once issued they are good forever (or until the defendant dies).
Generally, such a warrant is a secret one, because the defendant will never be notified, until after the fact, that one was signed and issued.
Warrants DON'T EXPIRE!! Once a warrant has been issued against a Defendant it stays active until served or recalled.
Typically, the statute of limitations would be 7 years. However, it is important to understand that this applies to situations where a crime has been committed but no warrant was issued in the defendant's name. Even if the defendant's name is not known, a John Doe warrant can be issued. Once a warrant is issued for an offense, it NEVER goes away. It may become inactive after a period of time, say, 6 months. Even so, it can be reactivated easily by a LEO. Furthermore, if an LEO knows there is a warrant existing in your name, he may lawfully arrest you EVEN IF THE WARRANT IS INACTIVE. After arrest, the warrant may be re-activated. So...the truth of the answer to your question is...never.
Alias warrant - defendant fails to show up for initial appearance after a citation is issuedBench warrant - defendant fails to show up for a scheduled court dateCapias warrant - defendant fails to pay fine after guilty verdict or plea Parole revocation (aka blue warrant) - self explanatoryAlso, whatever state you are in there are regions and if a unpaid citations turns into a warrant it will be in that region it was issued but will not show up in other regions. And then there are state warrants, for example: Texas state warrant is a TCIC which will show up on a check throughout the state, unlike a NCIC which--as you guessed--will show up over the country. Then there are International warrants that (I do not remember the abbreviation) mean when issued you are wanted by INTERPOL--which is not very good.
