More details to this question:
I was pulled over two weeks ago and the cop said I had an outstanding warrant from Atlantic City. It was from 2004. Evidently, I had a bench warrant and they did have my correct address.I made bail of 500. 00. Can I be charged and convicted from this? Since 2004, I was incarcerated twice and everytime they checked NCIC upon release, no warrants popped up. I am not sure what to do or if I can spend mpre time in jail. I a starting to put my life back together again

the case would be most difficult to prove. however, the court will be upset by your failure to appear in 2004. we have had success with paying 'contempt of court' fines and having the charges dismissed. please call if we can help. ed dimon, esq. 732-797-1600
