A Birmingham, Ala., judge who issued an arrest warrant for Siran Stacy said the Alabama tailback will be given extra time to pay off his fine for speeding and driving with a suspended license.
North Courtland traffic court Judge Rod Alexander said he talked with Stacy Wednesday, a day after issuing the warrant for his arrest when he didn’t complete payment on a $192 fine. He said Stacy misunderstood the instructions on the ticket.
Stacy was ticketed earlier this fall for speeding and driving with a suspended license. He pleaded guilty to the charges at an Oct. 17 hearing and made partial payment on the fine, with instructions to pay the balance by Tuesday’s court date.
When payment was not received and Stacy did not appear in court, Alexander routinely issued the arrest warrant.
