The Failure to Appear Unit assists the Court in reducing the number of outstanding capias warrants by providing defendants a means to voluntarily surrender without the involvement of a police agency and without being taken into custody. When the unit comes into contact with an eligible defendant, the outstanding warrant is quickly recalled, the case is placed back onto the appropriate docket, and the defendant is given a notice of appearance for the new court date. For those not eligible, information is given regarding case status and details on how to satisfy court obligations.
The Failure to Appear Unit provides recites free of charge.
