Q: What happens if I don't pay for my fine nor do my community service due to not be able to get my ID
My fine is $270 and I was supposed to do 24 hour community service but I could not afford my ID nor my fine because I have to give my landlord. $4,000 before the sheriff comes and kicks me and my husband out
A: Every case is unique, but the following will likely occur. A warrant will be issued and the sentence may be modified to require jail time. If this involved a driving offense, your license will be revoked, and the waiting period for re-application will not begin until the sentence is served.
