Lawrenceville Offers Warrant Amnesty Program For Unpaid Warrants

LAWRENCEVILLE, GA — From now until Nov. 30, Lawrenceville Municipal Court is conducting a Warrant Amnesty Program for unpaid “failure to appear” and “probation violation” warrants.

Individuals who voluntarily appear in person to pay outstanding warrants in full will have warrant fees waived up to $200. All warrants must be paid in full by cash, credit/debit card, money order, or by certified check.

Individuals must contact the Municipal Court Office at 770.963.3288 to obtain the amount needed to clear their warrant. The Lawrenceville Police Department is actively looking for those individuals who have outstanding warrants. The City of Lawrenceville is pleased to offer this amnesty period and hopes individuals will take advantage of this opportunity. At the time of clearing the warrant, individuals with suspended licenses will be given paperwork to clear their license with the Department of Driver Services.
