text: If a person has a warrant on them, but it is in another state or another county in that state, the officer who stops them tells them and details them up to 30 minutes while they check with that department that has the warrant.\n\nDepending on what it is for and where it is at, the supervisor in charge at the time it is checked will decide if they want to pay to have them bought in.\n\nFor example if it is a bench warrant for not appearing on a traffic ticket in California and you are in Ga, they aren't going to pay to have your bought to California\n\nNow they can but normally  don't.\n\nThis does not do away with the warrant, it is still active and the next time another supervisor may decide to bring them in, or if they are caught closer they may be taken in.
