Crimes of the past have time limits called statutes of limitation. Some have no limit. An arrest warrant for murder can be issued 80 years after the crime if the suspect is still alive (for instance).

When does a bench warrant for your arrest expire in Washington?

They don't actually "expire." After a number of years (usually ten) they fall out of the computer system. When that happens, the judge can either renew the warrant and keep it in the system so police can still access the information. If the judge decides to not reissue the warrant, then it is still active but police have no way of knowing about it.


If a warrant has been file and the check is over ten years old what can you do?

If a warrant has been filed for an old check that is over ten years old, you should first verify the status of the warrant and the specifics of the case. Generally, warrants can expire after a certain period, depending on the jurisdiction, so it may be possible that the warrant is no longer valid. It’s advisable to consult with a legal professional to understand your options and to potentially resolve the matter, which could include negotiating payment or addressing the warrant directly.

When does a Missouri bench warrant expire?

NEVER, as is the case for any warrant. NEVER is not the case for all bench warrants and its certainly not the case for all arrest warrants..... A Bench warrant will stay active till you are either brought before the court,the court drops the warrant itself, you die or you do some legal action to resolve the warrant. In some city courts, bench warrants for traffic tickets and unpaid fines are sometimes cleared after a number of years but that is a city by city issue. There are statute of limitations set on arrest warrants(meaning you committed a crime but have not been arrested by the police) that vary from state to state and once the statute of limitations is reached for that specific crime you can not be prosecuted for that crime and the arrest warrant becomes void,such as an arrest warrant issed in the state of Maryland in 1956 for a person who committed petty theft would no longer be valid in 2012 because the states statute of limitaions on the crime of petty theft is only 20 years..


Can a warrant be issued for an arrest after 13 years for a bad check?

A 13-year old is a minor. A check is a legal document. Minors are not allowed to sign legal documents. Therefore a check shouldn't be accepted in the first place from a 13-year old. If one did accept such a check he does so at his own risk, because it's inconceivable to believe that the State would issue a warrant in this type of situation. ADDED: I do not believe the questioner was asking about a 13 year old INDIVIDUAL, but was asking about a 13 year old BAD CHECK. If that is the case; It depends on the statute of limitations for that offense in the state in which the check was 'uttered.' It also depends on if the warrant was issued durng the Statute of Limitatins, because once a warrant was issued it means the charges were filed. If this is the case then there is no statute of limitations. However, as stated above, if 13 years has passed and no charges were filed then the Statute of Limitations has probably expired.

The larger 5 (23.5mm), 10 (28.5mm) and 50 (30mm) Pence coins were withdrawn and demonetised in 1990, 1993 and 1998 respectively. The decimal Half Penny was withdrawn and demonetised in 1984.
