Patricia, There are definitely ways to turn yourself in for a warrant without going to jail but it really depends on the nature of your New Mexico warrant. If this is just a bench warrant then you can probably reschedule your missed court appointment or pay any fines or fees and possibly not do any jail time.

Please reach out if we can further assist you with any public record searches.

My son is being held on traffic ticket FTA with no bond (rediculous). I think they have the wrong David Alderete for this ticket. (Sandoval County)
If you feel that your son is being held for a ticket that he did not obtain, which is strange because unless it was a DUI or reckless driving there are not many reasons that law enforcement will take this type of action. You might want to reach out to the courthouse clerk in your county to verify this New Mexico warrant and possibly consult with legal counsel if this is an issue of wrongful imprisonment.
