Re: application/motion to accelerate deferred judgment and sentence

At the same time the motion to accelerate was filed, the State should have also filed a warrant for your arrest. Accordingly, there is probably a warrant out for your arrest right now, and you will be arrested when the police find you.

You need to get a lawyer to deal with the motion to accelerate. The lawyer may also be able to talk to the DA and get you on the court docket without having to be arrested and having to post bond.
