No one here can tell you what the exact consequence will be as this is a general legal informational website. I do urge you to confer privately with an attorney with no delay as you aim to resolve this.Tricia Dwyer Esq at 612-296-9666, Tricia Dwyer Esq & Assoc PLLC, Minnesota Criminal Defense Attorney, Minnesota Probation Violation - Warrants Law, http://dwyerlawfirm.net
Impossible to say. Some counties you might be in and out, while in other counties the court might want to give you a 30 day sentence. Make sure you have a good lawyer with you before you do anything.

I am afraid that much more would be needed to assess the situation. However, you would be wise to have counsel. Often, the matter can be placed back on the court calendar and the warrant stayed pending that hearing.
