A capias is a warrant or writ of detainer issued by a judge or magistrate in order to take someone into custody. "No Capias" could mean several things, but written on a court's docket sheet it would usually mean that no capias WAS issued. This would be a good thing, since capiases are issued whenever a defendant does not obey an order of the court. For example, if you were ordered to court on a parking ticket charge and failed to appear, a capias would be issued. The capias allows all sheriffs (and in many jurisdictions, all law enforcement) to arrest you, in order to bring you before the judge before whom you were originally summoned.

What is mtr -iss capias my son has this on his papers to go to court. He is on 5 year felony probation and has been given a motion to revoke charge. MTR. What does this mean to him?
Unfortunately there is no universally recognized system of abbreviations, 'shorthand,' or 'lingo,' when it comes to notations placed on court files and papers. They can be unique to each courthouse or court circuit and may not even mean the same thing from one court to another. Your best bet is to contact the Clerk of Court office at your local court and ask them what it means.My educated GUESS is that it might mean MTR (= Motion to Revoke) iss capias (= issue Capias). That would explain the fact that he has been issued a notation to appear in court, probably because it is alleged that he has violated his probation. The unfortunate thing for you is that he probably knows exactly why this is happening and what it's all about.
