What is a "Class C" Warrant?

Class C refers to the level of misdemeanor offense. Class C is the lowest level of criminal violation. The jurisdiction remains with the local municipal court in most cities or with a Justice of the Peace in unincorporated areas and small towns. Examples of Class C offenses include most citable traffic offenses (speeding, running a stop sign...) and other minor violations like Theft under $100 in value.
