    Default If I Pay Off My Arrest Warrant, Will the Money Also Pay Off My Fines

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Illinois

    Hi, I currently have a felony warrant out for not paying my fines. And i tried to send the 1050 down needed to just pay off my fines to see if that would eradicate the warrant, but the clerks office refused to take my money saying I had to turn myself in and pay the arrest warrant. And the warrant is for 1700 dollars, but I'm just wondering if I pay the warrant it will also pay off the fines. Or if i really have to pay 2700 dollars to pay off everything now.

    I don't think there is an answer to that question in my magic 8 ball so you should be asking the court clerk that question.

    If by "Pay off my arrest warrant" you mean, "Pay the bond set by the court for my arrest warrant", and you post a cash bond and then actually appear as promised, then the balance of your bond after any fees are deducted would normally be applied to your fines and court assessments before any remaining balance (if any) is returned.
