My best recommendation is to contact Middle Ground Prison Reform at middlegroundprisonreform@msn.com. They handle these kind of issues on a daily basis and are former judges.

One of the best ways to see if someone has a warrant is to contact the Department of Public Safety at 602-223-2233. They will ask for your name and date of birth in order to look up if you have a warrant and will be able to tell you right then and there.
