I got a ticket about 6 months ago (prior posting) for making a left turn during prohibited hours (7am to 9am). It was actually 6:55am when I made this turn. Anyways, I plead not guilty and had a court date set. I called and had that court date changed because I was going to be in Colorado for some computer training. They gave me a date of November 7th. On November 6th I called the court house to check on my court time, and was told that the charge was continued for dismissal. I got the ladies name that told me that, just in case. Two weeks later, I get a court date for December 26th. I called in and had to talk to Erika Cline, who does the scheduling. I first talked to Kimberly who was the one that told me that my case was dropped. I told her that I just recieved another court date in the mail and reminded her what she had said. Her reply "Sir, I just told you what showed up on my screen, it said continued for dismissal." I left several messages for Erika Cline and she finally called me back today. She told me that I now had a warrant out for my arrest, I could either turn myself in or they would come and get me. I asked her what the warrant was for and she told me "probation violation, chem dep" what ever that is. I told her that I have never been on probation, this was a mistake. Her reply was that she would not argue with me about this, I needed to turn myself in. I told her that Kimberly told me that it was continued for dismissal, she told me that I was lying and kimberly never told me that.
So, I have never been in trouble before in my life. Now at 40 yrs old, I have a warrant out for my arrest. I did not miss any court date, it is set for December 26th. I will have 7 years sobriety in 2 days, yet a warrant is out for my arrest for a chemical test failure or something. I called a lawyer and they want $500 to even talk to me about it. I dont have $500. Isnt this great, all of these years staying out of trouble and I am going to jail over a big mix up. I give............
I called my Sgt. and he did a warrant check and told me that there was no warrant. He then got a 3 way going with the traffic violations people. She found a warrant on a person with the same first and last name, different middle, different date of birth. This explains it all! Glad that I didnt pay a lawyer $500 to figure this out for me. My Sgt. said that he would definetely fight the ticket if it were him. December 26th, I will go to court!
