Legal Question in Traffic Law in Arizona

I have a friend who has a suspended CA driver's license from not paying tickets. He currently lives in AZ now and was driving without a license in AZ and got pulled over and got a ticket for that. Is there any way he can get his driver's license in AZ still? Would he go to jail for the ticket in AZ or would he just have to pay a fine?

He was driving on a suspended license so he will get a fine for that on his AZ traffic ticket. He needs to pay his California tickets and get the license reinstated. But of course if he paid the tickets he wouldn't have a suspended license. AZ probably wont give him a new license until he clears up the California license. I am surprised that he doesn't have active warrants out there on the tickets. Ultimately, if the tickets go into warrant, he will be arrested on the warrants.
