🥊 Bench Warrants in Maryland — What You Need to Know

Understanding Bench Warrants in Maryland

If you’ve discovered there’s a **bench warrant issued in Maryland**, time is critical. A bench warrant means a judge has ordered law enforcement to arrest you—often for missing a court date, failing to pay fines, or ignoring a citation. Don’t panic—but don’t ignore it either. Call 🥊 (443) 629-7278 to speak with **Attorney Ben Ostroff**, *Maryland’s Ticket Fighter*, and take immediate control of your situation.

What Exactly Is a Bench Warrant?

A **bench warrant** is an order signed by a Maryland judge directing police to bring you before the court. It’s different from an arrest warrant that comes from a criminal investigation; a bench warrant usually results from a procedural issue like: • Missing a scheduled court appearance • Failing to pay traffic fines or probation fees • Ignoring a subpoena • Violating probation terms

Even if the issue started with a simple traffic ticket, a bench warrant can lead to your arrest anywhere in the state.

Consequences of Ignoring a Bench Warrant

If you fail to respond, you could be arrested during a routine traffic stop or at your home. Bench warrants stay active until cleared by a judge—there’s no expiration date. Having a warrant can also affect your driver’s license status, employment background checks, and future legal cases.
