She needs to turn herself in to the basement of the CJC where she will be given a new court date. If she walks in voluntarily, she will be given a subpoena and told when to return. She should contact a lawyer immediately to make those arrangements, If she waits, she could be picked up and held in prison until the case goes through the system
