If you have a warrant out for your arrest in another state... will it affect you if you live in another??

Okay so I have a family memeber that is currently in the Marines and he is in court marshall until august for some stupidity he did in Charleston, SC. So when he was in Beaufort, SC, he decided to go joy ridding and be stupid in Norfolk, VA and went to jail for disturbing the peace, ilegal cunsuption of alcohol beacuse he's a minor, and distruction of property, which isn't much. But still we bailed him out and all and since he couldnt go to his court, we sent a letter written by his Sgt. that he cant make it because he's in court marshall and stuff. His court was January 10, Im pretty sure there's a warrent. The family memeber isn't out yet, but most likly will be out in August, but really doesn't feel like going back to Norfolk, VA. We live in Texas. So will this affect him in anyway here in Texas. He has no business to go or be in Virginia either. Thanks for your help!

If he gets pulled over for even a speeding violation, they'll check him for warrants, and he'll get a free trip to Virginia.

Yes, the states do work together on warrents, and can "extradite" a felony from one state to another. It can take awhile, and sometimes do not send the offender back to the state the offense took place. But that offense will be taken into consideration, if ever he is jailed and has to appear in court, in any state. It's something he needs to take care of. Get a lawyer, surrender, and it will look better to any judge, giving him a possible lower sentence and fine. Take care of things, before something else happens. Honesty works the best.

Those are all misdemeanors, and Virginia couldn't care less. Nobody is going to extradite halfway across the country for misdemeanors.

It would be different if your not-too-bright family member was wanted for a serious felony, however.
