so received letter last friday by collections agency, saying i owe 800 for ticket received 2004 for driving under suspension...I remember going to court and I thought I paid it off...cause i had to pay it and tickets in different county to get licnese back...
so they told me if i dont pay i will get bench warrant, called court house in area i received ticket, they said they cannot suspend license but can put bench warrant, find it crazy after 7 years i dont already have bench warrant?? I am unemployed single mom of 2 and full time student cleaning houses to pay bills, what is a girl to do?


well I ended up getting my license back, everything is fine....I went court back 7 years ago, I swore i paid...but when called courthouse they seen the debt there as well.......but now the collections agency was threatening bench warrant....but as of today I have a license everything has been fine since 7 years ago ticket.
shouldnt they have to take me back to court to file for bench warrant, I was in belief that bench warrants were if you missed court...but I am not educated in the legal system

I am confused on why they didnt suspend my license and submit warrant a long time ago.....why now why 7 years later and the debt is twice as much as the original ticket was in the begging...but i had to pay all my fines to get my license back and revocation fee....thats why I am so confused....I love the ghetto tacky collectors that chitchat with friends while in conversation with you, smacking food in my ear and call back to leave me a threatening voicemail and laughed on phone..haha I saved the message just encase.

I just was told that court would request me to come in...and if i was a noshow then bench warrant
