Re: CourtAdvice

It sounds like you failed to appear in court for a criminal case. If this is correct, the Judge may have issued a bench warrant for your arrest. This means that the police can come to your home and arrest you, or, if you get pulled over for a traffic ticket, you can get arrested. The best thing to do is get a lawyer and go to court voluntaily to vacate the warrant and deal with the case. My office handles criminal matters if you want to discuss the case. Our number is 212-622-7180
