Legal Question in Criminal Law in New York
I'm traveling out of the country this summer, I think there may be an arrest warrant out on me , can I travel and if so will I be subjected to an arrest when I return?

You may be subject to arrest upon departure or on return. It is important to know the charge and the jurisdiction. You could also have an attorney check to see if a warrant has issued.
Good Luck
From my experience, if you return to a NYC airport they would certainly pick up the warrant and hold you for court and depending on how serious the charge is, set bail on you. Take care of the warrant before you leave the country.
Yes you could be arrested either going or coming. Contact an attorney asap to assist you.
