My question involves a driver's license issued by the State of: CA

Was a student when this happen and my priority was to pay for my tuition and get my degree.

I got a ticket in 2006 for no insurance and expired Tag (need smog check to renew and didn't have the money to fix the car), didn't go to court and didn't pay. I did get an insurance for my car.

Then my license expired and i cannot renew because i have to pay for my ticket.

when i checked i need to pay $1200+ for the ticket. so i simply stopped driving and put my car (not paid the registration also) in friends garage that they don't use.

Now i can pay the $1200+ but i need some advice, will there be more fees ? do i have a warrant on me ? how can i check. I only have a limited amount of money now and want to get much info so i can be prepared.

Thank You
