Do misdemeanor warrants expire in AZ?

There is no statue of limitations on any warrant anywhere. However you will not be extradited for a misdemeanor warrant. Yes, there is statute of limitations on misdemeanor offenses. If you stay out of trouble for seven years or out of the state, the warrant will go away. I had one for a marijuana possession charge and laid low for seven years and when I finally went back to AZ I was picked up for it, but when I went to court it was thrown out due to the statute of limitations. Alot of people don't know the laws and just because you get picked up for an old warrant doesn't mean it will stick. Some states like New York don't have statute of limitations but AZ does. Answer The above stated answer doesn't answer the question of the warrant. As you can plainly see, the warrant was still active even though the charge was droped. Warrants do not expire in any state. The charge for which the warrant was issued does, however. Most states have a 2-3 year limit on misdemenors, to try them, but the warrant will not expire. Arizona has a 3 year statute of limitations on certain misdemenors so the person cited above wasted 4 years. As described, when he returned to the state 7 years later, the warrant was served.
