Re: bench warrant

Without knowing exactly which court you're in, it's hard to answer your question. However, in general, most courts will allow you to do a warrant recall and "add on" your case to the docket to be disposed of that day. You will incur additional court costs due to the warrant, but that usually is it.

To be safe I would advise you contact a local attorney to determine how the court in which your ticket is located will act. A nominal fee is better than going to jail.
