My question involves criminal law for the state of: Texas .
A couple of weeks ago I received a notice that there was a warrant for my arrest for Theft by Check. I called to find out about it and it was for some checks from 1987. I asked for a little more information and they sent me a list of the checks. I called the stores involved and they have no record that shows that I have any outstanding checks. I was told the Warrant was issued in 1988. In the Past 22-23 years I have had a few background checks for my job and have been stopped a few times for traffic and this warrant has never showed up. This is the first I have herd of the Problem after 23 years and they say I not only need to pay the checks but also take some stupid class before the warrant will be lifted. How long can they persue this'
