You're charged with the crime of harassing or threatening phone calls or electronic communications. Get an attorney and cooperate in going to court before you get arrested and transported involuntarily. Feel free to contact me for the legal help you'll need, if the case is in SoCal.

Penal Code section 653m, subdivision (b), says:

Every person who makes repeated telephone calls or makes repeated contact by means of an electronic communication device with intent to annoy another person at his or her residence, is, whether or not conversation ensues from making the telephone call or electronic contact, guilty of a misdemeanor. Nothing in this subdivision shall apply to telephone calls or electronic contacts made in good faith.
