If you had a bench warrant out for your arrest, would now be the best possible time to turn yourself in? Or the worst? Can you get in front of a judge right now? Would you be stuck in jail until you can? Or, being that there are reports of inmates being released to avoid the 'Rona, would they simply let you walk until a later date?
Asking for a friend. Not really.
Listen, the S2 community is diverse in opinion but it is not lacking in intelligence and experience. It's a long and very layered story of mine. Not doing the lawyer thing again. Don't want to get into much detail unless absolutely necessary. The first paragraph of this post is what I want to focus on if possible. I will say the warrant is not for a violent crime. It was a DUI a long time ago and I missed a court date and I kind of melted down because I had never, ever been in trouble with the law in the 40 years of my existence. Been putting it off for close to 3 years. No preaching necessary. I know I'm an idiot. I tell myself every day. But I'm ready to get this fixed so I don't have to anymore.
Very uncomfortable to post, but desperate, and seriously, any reasonable insight could truly help me a great deal. Plus, what else do you nerds have to do.
Forever grateful. Go Blazers.
Find out what the jurisdiction is.
Then, do research on what their current policies are of the court.
I would call the clerk's office from a burner phone and ask what the procedures are and what are they doing in these situations.
