Arrest Warrant Notice - Massachusetts

Today I received an Arrest Warrant from the Middlesex Sheriff's

Office in

Mass. The warrant states

the following: ''***You need to report to the

Deputy Sheriff located at xxx on xxx

date*** This matter requires your immediate

attention. Please be forewarned that

there is no bail in a contempt of court civil

arrest. Because you have failed to

answer for the alleged contempt of court, you

are now subject to arrest at your

home or place of employment without further

notice. Your failure to appear on this

day will result in you being arrested on sight

and being held in custody until the

next sitting of the court.''

This is a result of a collections agency

(CACH, LLC) tying to collect a debt

from me. I answered the original complaint in

writing but nothing resulted and I

continued to receive harassing calls,

as did my friends, neighbors and

relatives regarding this. I missed my original

court date. I have some questions regarding this.

-Can/will anything happen to me

before the date I must report?

-What will happen when I report?

-What can I do between now and the

report date to help my situation?

-Is there anything I can do to

postpone this?

-Should I contact CACH?
