A: more info needed.

make an appointment with a local criminal attorney asap.

IF, the court did not order it, then you are not dealing with a bench warrant........BUT

you are dealing with a misdemeanor criminal charge.

you should talk to a lawyer who will probably suggest you sign up for the 18 mo class

NOW.......then you should hire a lawyer to appear in court and explain your facts.
