In criminal law, once a warrant has been issued, there is generally no statue of limitations that may terminate the warrant or criminal case. Check with a criminal defense attorney in your State to see if a statue of limitations applies to criminal cases after a warrant has been issued. If not, then you need to make arragements to address the warrant and pay the amount of the fine to close your case and terminate the warrant.
