Individuals who have outstanding warrants for failure to appear, failure to obey a court order, or failure to report will benefit from this amnesty program. During this time, the district courts will waive the warrant fee and jail times if it receives full payment for the underlying amounts for these warrants.

The amnesty program would enable those sought on warrants to avoid any inconvenience of being
arrested, avoid being assessed additional court cost of $350, and resolve their case entirely.
