I don’t practice in Ohio but your question remains open for four weeks. If you were represented by an attorney, it could be worthwhile to ask them to go over the terms of your release and other closing documents for the case.

My mom is 70 years old and had let her insurance lapse (I had no idea it had). Apparently it has been a few months. I know that it is illegal to drive without insurance.

The officer said because I cooperated that the judge would keep me out of jail because of that. But I accidently missed my court date and I had to recite myself. So does this mean that I will be taken to jail now?

That you missed one time and had to reschedule is not going to have a major impact on the outcome. You really ought to have an attorney for this. Police officers are not very reliable sources of legal advice and often minimize to keep people calm. You need a lawyer familiar with the judge... View More
of the potential claim. Before I jump through all of the paper work hoops & pay filing fees, (insurance is asking for a certified copy of 'waiver of administration'). Is there some way to find out how much the claim may be?
