Humble, TX asked in Criminal Law for Louisiana

Q: I have an attachment for failing to appear, will I be arrested if I call upon an officer to report my vehicle stolen?

It says my location is Texas but it is not, I'm in Covington, La.

The above mentioned court date was set for nearly a year from the date in which the summons was issued. My mother passed away the week of my court date. On a previously scheduled court date, my father committed suicide on the actual date I was scheduled to appear and the court did not accept this as a justifiable reason for missing the court date. I had attended several court dates in between those two dates, in which they were 100% unproductive and were rescheduled due to court error. Example: They arraigned me, then scheduled me for another arraignment date instead of a trial date.
