If you are in a different state then Maryland, then it is likely you would be held for a period of time in order for the arresting state to inquire whether Maryland will pay the cost to extradite you.

One thing is for sure, that you don't want to spend a month in jail in NY or FL waiting for Maryland to come get you.

You don't say in what county in Maryland you got the charge. You should employ a lawyer in that County to petition the Court to lift the bench warrant and set the case in for a hearing.
