Will the police come to your house on a bench warrant for a failure to appear at cost and fines hearing
If the warrant is extraditable from New York, you can present yourself to a law enforcement agency in New York for arrest. If the warrant is not extraditable from New York, you have the option of returning to Arizona and presenting yourself for arrest at the law enforcement agency where the alleged offense took place. If the offense is punishable by fine only, you may contact the court where the charge was filed and pay either a bond or the fine itself. On a side note, traffic offenses in Arizona are civil cases only, as opposed to most states where a traffic case is a criminal case. Thus, failure to appear for a civil traffic offense will only result in your driver's license being suspended and additional fines and penalties, but not a warrant for your arrest. However, failure to appear for a criminal misdemeanor charge will result in an additional class one misdemeanor charge for failure to appear.
It all depends... Are you a white male or female? Are you a black, hispanic, or native american male or female? Are you wealthy or have political status? Check the historical data on this type of arrest through the Scottsdale P.D. Information Office. The answer becomes quite clear.
