Legal Question in Family Law in Virginia
Recently a warrant was issued for my husbands arrest. The officers who came by the house said he will not be arrested. They just want him to sign it and get his court summons so he has the date. It is a domestic case involving his sister. She did not press charges so we think the state is pursuing it . Is there such a warrant where you are not arrested you just have to sign for the papers?

Yes, to show that the warrant has been properly executed so that the Summons to Appear can be issued by the court to the person named in the warrant.
