Hire an attorney now to search the title and draft an action for quiet title, reform deed, ejectment, etc. You cannot do this yourself and will lose the land.

I would recommend you contact the Sovereign Military Order of the Temple of Jerusalem... View More

That is a tough question. My advice would be to contact a defense lawyer in your area to see what the facts are about your warrant. Obviously it would be best to quash the warrant.
