Here it goes, I received a seat belt citation earlier this year. Prior to the fine passing the due date I filed an extension on it online which was accepted. I proceeded to wait until further notice about the citation was mailed to me. I never received a second notice through mail or any notice about it.
Until a few weeks ago I receive a letter from GC Services a collection agency, which showed that I owe the Superior Court of California a balance of $825. The letter stated that as a result of my failure to appear on my citation the court had referred me to the GC Service. I called GC to ask about my payment options, they proceeded to link my bank account to the balance as they allowed me to make monthly payment of $165 or so dollars per month.
I thought that would solve the problem, little did I know i would receive another letter this time from the DMV, that as of Sep-11 my license would be suspended until my failure to appears and failures to pay a fine were resolved.
I have done little research since I can't sleep and I came across this site, and what I know is, I most likely have a warrant for this matter.
My citations go as follow, 1. seat/belt 2. failure to appear and 3. failure to pay a citation I am assuming.
I just simply can't have my license suspended, I drive a lot, work, home, ect. Am I facing any jail time for this?
Any advice on what to expect or do aside from calling the court which I will do tomorrow morning would be appreciated.
