"MTR" typically stands for "motion to revoke," which is a legal request to revoke a person's bail or probation. "Iss capias" refers to a court order for an individual to be arrested. Therefore, "MTR iss capias" likely indicates that a motion to revoke has been filed and a warrant for the person's arrest has been issued.
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.
