Not necessarily.
It depends on many factors. Starting with whether the State is concerned about the case, which could be because of your prior record, or how serious the assault is alleged to be. Also, it depends on the judge (for instance, Judge Johnson in Anne Arundel will issue an immediate body attachment for her (i.e. arrest her and bring her to court). Furthermore, it may be a better idea for her to come to court and tell the true story, depending on many factors involved in that decision as well. You should hire an attorney immediately to discuss all these factors.
