Legal Question in Criminal Law in California

The only proper answer to any question about dealing with a warrant is, you must go to the issuing court, with or without your lawyer, and request to judge recall the warrant and put the criminal case back of 'active' status and set the next court appearance date. Since you don't know what this is about, or what to expect in court, it would make sense to hire an experienced criminal defense attorney, like one of us on this panel, to represent you. He could check the court files to see what caused the warrant, and thus be prepared to deal with it when you go to court. He 'may' find that he can appear without you being personally present at that first court date.
