The most common FTA's in the US occur when people neglect to show up in court regarding traffic tickets. Of course, anybody committed of any crime which requires a hearing is subject to receiving a failure to appear warrant. You can also receive a warrant for not showing up for jury duty when you are assigned to appear or not showing up for a civil lawsuit hearing.
