Arrest warrants are forever, and you've certainly got one for your failure to comply with the courts sentencing and orders. You either deal with this properly now, or face being taken away in cuffs to jail and court if you come in contact with any law enforcement officers. To 'handle' this, you must return to court and turn yourself in. Your lawyer will then try to negotiate a deal with the court and DA to keep more time from being added to your original sentence. Turning yourself in will get you a better outcome than getting brought in by law enforcement. If serious about doing so, feel free to contact me for the legal help you need.
