SCMLR 3.2
PROCEDURE TO QUASH WARRANT
The Court may quash the warrant under the following circumstances:
(A) The defendant may personally appear at the clerk's office and pay the
amount of the warrant fee in cash. The defendant shall then personally sign a
promise to appear at a hearing set for the next judicial day with a criminal
case docket. The Court will determine the appropriate conditions for the
defendant's continued release at that hearing.
(B) If the Court has ordered a second or subsequent warrant in a particular
case, the defendant may appear at the clerk's office and sign a Request for
Motion Hearing to Quash Active Warrant. The defendant will sign a promise to
appear at a hearing set for the next judicial day with a criminal case docket.
However, the warrant will not be stayed or quashed, and the defendant will
still be subject to arrest on the warrant until the defendant has appeared in
open court and the Judge has quashed the warrant.
(Effective: September 1, 2011)
