124,000 warrants never executed

    Yeah all 124,000 of them. Meanwhile murder cases get nowhere. I had an warrant once, I moved house and missed a traffic violation, missed that I didn't pay the fine, and had sold the car so I didnt re-register the address for the car - which would have sent the increased fine I think. The result was a warrant.

    Anyway I did find out about it and sort it but its the kind of thing that most of these warrants are for. You may have one.

    They should not let people not turn up for assault cases in court - the Gardai should have tracked that down, for sure, but for the trivial ****e people get caught when they are otherwise pulled over for something else, and radioed in. And thats all the work the Gardai should do ( for me it was different, a background check, I still wouldnt know I as sold my car and never, therefore, meet the police or get pulled).
    Ok, fair complaint. A two tier system could operate. People wanted for assault would trigger the Gardai coming.
    Really though, the systems should be linked up. If you go to hospital and provide your pps and address, why shouldn't the DoJ have the ability to use that system to update their own?

    For the very good reason that, legislatively speaking, that would be a runaway coach and four racing through the safeguards envisaged by the laws governing data protection !

    I ignored a speeding ticket.

    went to court. Did not show.

    Still ignored it. Never paid . just dumped the letters.

    Told I had a warrent on me.


    11 years later and garda vetting pass. No sign of it.

    Why would anyone worry about a warrent

    Garda are a joke.
