I recently applied for a new job and recieved a call from them stating they found something unusual when they performed a background check on me. Apparently, I have a bench warrant issued in the state of georgia (I'm in Florida now) in November for Failure to Appear in the matter of a Dog at Large ticket (my dog dug under the fence and ran loose for a total of 20-30 minutes.... stupid ticket in the first place). I paid the fine via a money order and mailed it 2 weeks before the due date. I haven't heard anything since and assumed it was all taken care of. Since the ticket, I have moved several times and had problems recieving my mail. This might explain why I never knew about the warrant. What is my next course of action? I don't have the receipt from the Money Order and know I will probably have to shell out that money again, but should I call the sheriff's office, the courthouse, etc?? Any suggestions are much appreciated.
