I don't really understand the question but I also don't know of any rule requiring that the florida judge schedule things in a particular way. Maybe ask a Florida Attorney.

Until the warrant is served or recalled. Arrest warrants are served by arresting the person. A criminal defense attorney can file a motion to recall a warrant and a judge might choose to recall the warrant under some circumstances.
