Q: I have a bench Warrant but have court today. If I show up to court, will I be arrested
My bench Warrant is for non compliance with pretrial services, after missing only one test due to being evicted because of my charge. I called iñ everyday, and missed one test. The probation officer (I'm not on probation) came to my house and forced my mother to UA me. Then filed a bench Warrant after I filled out a paper stating I had used a dab pen.
A: Its probably too late to answer this question? Did you get arrested? That is pretty typical, especially if you've been on Pre-Trial Release for a drug offense. Just be positive and, if this is your first PV, hopefully the District Court will agree to reinstate you on felony probation. Trick is to stay clean! Not just to please some deputy on Pre-Trial Release, clean for YOUR sake! CLEAN for your gf's sake, CLEAN so you might live another day!
