Creepy Neighbor Man, Part Three

Last Wednesday, October 10, CNM was scheduled to appear in court. The County Attorney had informed me that I could call her on Thursday, following the hearing, to find out about the outcome. I called. Guess what...jackhole didn't show up for his hearing. The attorney explained to me that he posted bail after being arrested and paid $2000 as a promise to appear in court. So, this means his bail was set at $20,000, right? She explained that he now has a warrant out for his arrest. My question, though, is how long does it take before they arrest him? Is it like a traffic violation? I've had a warrant out for my arrest before for not completely paying off a ticket. Of course, mine was an accident, but usually in those cases you don't get arrested until you get pulled over again and they run your license number. When does CNM get arrested again? He never drives, his wife always does. He's always home cause he's a bum. Will they go to his house and pick him up? I mean, running a stop sign and trying to attack someone are two very different things. Basically what this says to me...CNM, asshole, got off. He will go unpunished for what he "did" to me. I'm very angry at the system. There's got to be something, legal, I can do. This guy can't just get away with this. Any suggestions, legal suggestions?

Any time the police encounter him and "run his license" they will get a hit on the warrant. I say any time, but certainly this will happen in the county where the warrant was issued.
Now, I would call the police for any infraction. If he parks in front of a fire hydrant, or plays music too loud or anything. They'll be slow to respond because it is obviously a dispute between neighbors. When they show up, they will run his license, see he has a warrant and he will go to jail again. It doesn't mean much in the way of justice for you.
You could call the local sherriff or constable's office and say that you know he has a warrant because you were the victim, and you know his immediate location because you can see him out your window. They might tell you some noise about how they can't respond to every such call, but they might just show up and arrest him.

I agree with Brian. Definitely call the police and say you know his location at present and for the future. Do anything you can to get the cops out there.
