Other Criminal Charges & Offenses Non payment of fines

Jurisdiction

Kentucky

Due to a background check I just found out I have a warrant for my arrest. In 2009 I ignorantly took a job selling magazines door to door. Anyhow I was arrested for selling without a permit. It was my first, and last arrest. I spent 6 days in jail, and was ordered to pay a $200 fine. When I was released from jail I moved back to Tennessee, and never came back to pay the fine, and now a warrant has been issued. How long could I be in jail for this?

Pay the fine and you won't spend any time in jail.
Contact the county where the warrant was issued and ask how to resolve this.
This is such a low level offense they won't want to waste any time with you, and they certainly don't want you in their jail
