Legal Question in Criminal Law in New York

I am traveling to Jamaica for a wedding that I am in , in June. I have a misdemeanor bench warrant which is PICK UP ONLY IN SCHENECTADY COUNTY, NY. I have been pulled over before and let go because its pick up only in a certain county. I am waiting for money to be able to pay a lawyer to get this taken care of but I want to know if I will be arrested and held for this? Before you say if I have $ for Jamaica I should have $ to get this taken care of, the wedding party paid for my trip.

You can be detained if there is a warrant for your arrest. Additional charges may be filed against you too. You need to address you warrant immediately.
