What crime constitutes a misdemeanor nightcap warrant?

A misdemeanor nightcap warrant typically pertains to minor offenses that can be resolved without a formal arrest, often involving public intoxication, disorderly conduct, or similar low-level violations. It allows law enforcement to issue a warrant for someone who has been cited for such an offense but failed to appear in court or comply with legal requirements. This type of warrant is generally less severe than a felony warrant and is focused on ensuring compliance with legal proceedings.
