If you do not show up in court, the judge will issue a warrant for your arrest. Since you are not in jail I assume that you got a bail bond. Eventually, the court could require the bondsman to pay the amount of the bond to the court which would result in a effort by the bondsman to collect the funds from the surety or co-signer. You need to get an attorney have the case reset until after you return from Iraq.
