A bench warrant is a warrant that is issued directly by a judge. It is usually only enforced when Law Enforcement comes into contact with the named party in the warrant. Occassionally, the issuing judge will order the warrant to be enforced upon issuance. Bench warrants are usually a more minor matter, but legally speaking, it is still an important matter.

Will i get arrested if i appear to clear a bench warrant in ca?

I suggest you call first and inquire. They MAY have to take you into custody briefly, or maybe not, you don't say what the bench warrant is for. If you show up voluntarily it will certainly go much better for you than if you ignored it, or fled.


Do you have to be arrested if you did not go to court on the date assigned and you have a warrant out for your arrest but you have the money now?

Here's some advice: Contact the Clerk of The Court that issued the bench warrant. Advise them that you are aware of the bench warrant, but that you now have the money to pay the fine. Ask them if the court would consider withdrawing the warrant if you came in voluntarily and paid the fine amount. I have known of this to happen.
