I have to reestart everytime to fix it. Is this a known bug? Is there an easier way to fix it?

I posted this on support forum 2 or 3 days ago but nobody replied

7 days I believe, but not sure. I've only had a bounty on me a couple of times. It should tell you in the transactions tab in the left panel.

It used to be you could just straight pay it off, but that changed a while back. Now it sorta varies a little between major and minor crimes. Something minor like accidentally laser tagging someone will go from unpayable bounty to payable fine in like 10 minutes, as long as you do a hyperspace jump after the time runs out to move it from bounty to fine. Bigger stuff like murdering people basically slaps a 7 day unpayable bounty on you, and if you manage to not break anything in that time then it turns into a fine you can finally pay off at the station.

Either way -usually- you can look at the faction status screen or the transactions screen and it'll tell you somewhere how long is left on whatever bounty.

The bounty lasts seven days, you will be aggressively attacked for 24 hours, then it seems to become dormant, after 7 days it becomes a legacy, which you can ignore unless you get fined or wanted again in the same system.

Bounties cannot be paid off. They last for up to 7 days (depending on how severe), after which they become legacy fines. The only way to get rid of a bounty before it expires is to respawn at a station owned by the faction issuing the bounty, which adds it to your rebuy costs.
Expired bounties are refreshed when you enter a system, so if one of your bounties expires you'll have to jump to another system for it to turn into a legacy fine.
Bounty hunters will follow you around no matter where as long as you have one (although I'm not sure what the threshold is, if any).

Bounties only become dormant if you die but don't respawn at a jurisdiction where you're wanted.

You can't pay off your wanted status. You have to wait for it to expire. Not sure of suicide with a sidewinder still works in 2.1

It still works, I used that yesterday evening. Got tired of those elite anaconda trying to blow me up for a stupid 10k Cr bounty that I earned for being too enthusiastic.
You have to be killed in the system where you're wanted though.
