Legal Question in Criminal Law in New Hampshire
Failure to Pay Fines
Hi,
I just have a question about a legal issue. I was arrested 3 times in New Hampshire for underage drinking - they were violations. I paid the first fine of $720.00 then was issue another fine for $1200.00 for the second time and then another $600.00 for the third time. Total I owed to the courts was $1800.00. They helped me out a lot and gave me extensions and payment plans throughout the year and I had followed them until I had to leave where I was and I haven't paid them anything in the past year and haven't been back, mainly because now I am afraid that I have a bench warrant. I have the money to pay the rest of the fine that I owe, but am wondering if I will be arrested still because of failure to pay when it was initially due? Will I be able to go to the court clerk, pay it and leave with no problems?

You'll have to ask the clerk. I have no way of knowing what the status of your case is.
