Re: failue to appear

It depends on the Judge. I suggest you get an attorney. It will show the judge that you are serious about handling the issue. It shouldn't be very expensive since it should be a quick appearance.

My initial consultations are always free, so call me at 732/247/3340 to discuss your case.

Re: failue to appear

Post the bail, get a court date, pay the fine. You probably will not be facing any jail time, HOWEVER, the judge does have the right to jail you for contempt of court. Most likely you won't get any jail though.
