South Carolina H3067 restricts when a bench warrant can be issued for failure to appear in court.

South Carolina H3067 amends the state code to prevent a circuit court judge from issuing a bench warrant for failure to appear unless the solicitor has posted a list of potential warrants at the courthouse and on their website at least 48 hours prior. This rule does not apply if the warrant is issued by the judge themselves or if the person has been personally served with an appearance date. The act ensures that any pending actions or liabilities remain unaffected by the changes.
