Unlike the two boneheads that say otherwise...you will never be arrested for non-payment of a bill. This is a civil suit, not a criminal matter.
dirtyrych states that they can take your drivers license. I notice he gives no source for his information (as usual) so we can't verify it. But it only takes a few moments to locate the truth. They will only do such a thing if the judgement involves a motor vehicle accident, and you fail to pay the judgement related to it. This is common in many states (including California) but it has no effect on other debt collections.
You should note that according to the Fair Debt Collections Act, if a creditor tells you that you can/will be arrested for non-payment, and you can get proof of him saying it (witness, phone recording, copy of a letter), then you can sue them for $1000 for violation of the FDCA. They can not tell you such things. |

You cannot be arrested for a debt. If a collection agency says that to you, they are violating the law. |

Unlikely, if you have committed no crime.
Generally, what can happen is they will sue you for the money and get a judgement. Then, they will try to collect on their judgement.
Part of the process may include some sort of payment order (by the court).
If you violate payment orders, then you are in contempt of court. You can, hypothetically, be sent to jail for contempt, but judges are very hesitant to send someone to jail for being unable to pay.
if, however, you did something fraudulent with the bank, then yes you could be arrested.
Hope that helps. |

you cannot be arrested for owing money, unless of course you owe money to the irs because of a fraudulent tax return. Debtors prisons are unconstitutional in the united states. good luck |

They can take you to court. They can sue you. They can ruin your credit. But they can NEVER have you arrested/jailed for a debt--it's the law. |

I don't know about other states, in california they not only can areest you for it but they can also take your drivers license away. Pending on who the collector is..... Child support,IRS, restitution,etc........ |

You won't get arrested, but they can sue you or garnish your wages directly from you job. |

None can get you arrested directly.
If you dont pay them, they would probably pass it on to a debt collection agency, possibly leading to baliffs around your house. |

They can sue you, and I suppose if you don't show up for your court date you will get a warrant, and then arrested. |
