You need to hire a lawyer immediately, because we can file a motion to quash this warrant and almost certainly get you a new court date. Don't delay - before you are arrested on the warrant!

Re: FTA warrant

The initial charging document requires an immediate response. Otherwise you risk being arrested on the bench warrant. Contact an attorney.
