Your best move is to let your attorney deal with all of the judges that are involved to determine how they want to handle this.

It depends on whether you get jail time on the felony. If you are, I'd take care of the felony first on the outside chance that any misdemeanor disposition would result in time served.

It is best to get yourself turned in. Judges will usually work with one another regarding jail time. Besides, just because a warrant is out for your arrest does not mean you will be instantly jailed. If you go in with an experienced attorney, like myself, that may not happen. Of course, if you are jailed on your instant offense there is a chance you could be transported their on the other cases.
