Facing a warrant for missing court can be terrifying, but it’s not always as serious as it seems. The consequences depend on the specific charges. If you missed a court date, there are three potential outcomes: called and failed, failure to appear, or an order for arrest. A called and failed case is usually for minor offenses like traffic tickets and can often be easily rescheduled. However, if left unresolved, it could lead to a license suspension. A failure to appear is more serious and requires a document from the district attorney to reschedule. An order for arrest is the most severe, potentially leading to jail time. If you find yourself in this situation,  give one of our Criminal Defense Attorneys at Dummit Fradin a call and set up a consultation!
