Asked by Link (327) August 12th, 2009. Are cover letters and business letters single spaced? How many blank lines go after the date, the address, paragraphs, and salutation? There is so much information on letter writing online, but very little on the spacing.
When an individual learns that a bench warrant has been issued for his arrest, it is very important to take care of it as soon as possible. The bench warrant gives law enforcement the authority and direction to arrest the defendant and return him to court.
A bench warrant is most often used as a criminal law term that refers to a writ issued by a judge when a defendant fails to appear in court as ordered, or to comply with the terms the court has set forth. A bench warrant gives police officers the authority to arrest the defendant and bring him before the court. The purpose of a bench warrant is to deter defendants from violating court orders, and to punish offenders for failing to appear as required by the court. For example: John gets into an altercation with his friend and the police are called.
