Online Payment Does Not Prove Versailles Recall
Paying online near a court date may not stop a Versailles warrant, the city cautions. Processing time, the court's order, and transmission to law enforcement are separate steps that each take their turn. Ask the clerk what amount is due, whether appearance is mandatory, and when the judge or clerk expects a recall entry to take effect.
