Legal Question in Criminal Law in Nevada

Wrong name on a citation

I got citation for a finder-bender in

Nov. but lost the ticket before I had

the chance to pay it. I went in the

court house with the money and

they said they had no record of it. I

went back 2 or 3 more times and got

the same answer. Then I got a

warrant in the mail for not paying

the ticket but the name on the

warrant was incorrect, it had my

middle name as my first name and

first name as my middle. Is their

anyway I could get the citation

dismissed?

Unlikely you'll get a dismissal if there was an accident. However, you can probably get the warrant money back if you had to pay a fine to quash the warrant.
