A: If I understand what you are asking, this is an old charge that is still pending - but your life has cleaned up and have a lot to lose. If there are pending charges, I would recommend you speak with an attorney in person immediately so that he or she arrange for a self-surrender, an OR/PR bond (no money put down) - or arrange for a bail bondsman (most likely will be the scenario), and ask your attorney to engage with the prosecutor as soon as possible to minimize any potential punishment. If this has not been charged at all, and depending on the time that has passed, the statute of limitations may have already run and there may be no charges. Every case is fact specific.
