A warrant in debt is not an arrest warrant: it generally is a judgment against you and a notice that you are in debt to another person or an entity. You can never go to jail just for owing money to anyone or anyplace else, unless the debt was the result of a crime committed, such as a bad check.

Can you go to jail for a debt that is over 10 yrs old?
Yes, it is certainly possible. Typically it won't occur though. Unless there is criminal activity involved, such as fraud, courts don't sentence people to jail on a civil debt. For example a criminal offender is granted probation and is ordered by the Court to pay restitution to the victim. The offender stops reporting to his probation officer and does not pay the restitution as ordered so a warrant gets issued. The warrant will not go away until the offender is arrested even after ten years.
