My new Roommate is on probation. I have a traffic warrant. Will his probation officer arrest me?

Postby bing49 » Fri Jul 27, 2012 1:36 am

My roommate did not tell me he was on probation until I had already moved in. He says he rarely comes by the house and is "laid-back". Today he had to go meet with his probation officer and gave him my name because he needs to know who he is living with. I have 2 over-due traffic tickets that I have not been able to pay and now have a warrant for both. They are both in a different county then we live in.
When his probation officer comes by to check up on him/search will he arrest me? Or now that he has my name report it to the police so they come and arrest me?
I plan on paying and taking care of them but won't be able to for a couple more weeks.

If you have a warrant out for you that may make you a felon and your roommate can be arrested. And if you have a warrant out for you his probation officer will report you to the authorities and you may be arrested by them. Go to court work out a payment plan with the judge because by ignoring it it will only get worse ending with you in jail.
